the Adblock project

What is it?
Adblock is a content filtering plug-in for the Mozilla and Firebird browsers. It is both more robust and more precise than the built-in image blocker.

Adblock allows the user to specify filters, which remove unwanted content based on the source-address. If this sounds complicated, don't worry: it's not.

Just add a few filters. Every time a webpage loads, Adblock will intercept and disable the elements matching your filters. See?- nothing to it.

heck if I can find a download of the product at that site.
it looks like a program worth trying if someone ever locates where it can be download from.

 

It is _the_ extension to have - I can't tell ya how much I love this one.
If you're planning on installing it, make sure to get RejZoR's filter (user here at Wilders) from http://freeweb.siol.net/razor256/downloads/eXcessive_AdBlock.zip
Saves you alot of time and you can basically skip any configurations.

Thank you for your kind guidence and assist. Up to now Firefox was not an option for me but will give it a try if this program works well.

Alos get this one too: https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&version=1.0&os=Windows&id=158

Improves tab browsing by 90% if ya ask me

 

Brian, thank you sir, will give it a try as well.

i recommend using the filterset.g as well, and if want to give whitelisting a try (filterset.g whitelist beta also available) then use adblock plus. to add to brians suggestion, if u want more power and ur not afraid of potential issues or the fact that mozillazone highly doesnt recommend it, then i suggest tabbrowsing extensions

Thanks for your imput. Will first test firefox for a couple of days then maybe try your suggested program.....

While Tab Browser Preferences is pretty good, I much prefer TabMix FROM HERE which gives much great configurability IMO.

I've used the first one, then discovered this little beauty.

Especially love the 'mouseover' on the TABs to 'steal focus' without clicking.

You also have the option of altering it directly from the Tools Menu.


Cheers, TAS

PS: Also in case you are wondering, the theme is SphereGnome 1.2 FROM HERE

 

Mouse options....

 

Depends if you want it simple & working or if you want it advanced & working
I like it simple as I don't wan't any advanced settings for my tabs
As long as it works, I'm a happy man.

 

I hear ya Brian, lol. The KISS method is usually the most reliable.

Cheers, TAS

 

I think I may have to check out Tabmix.

As for Adblock, I use Adblock plus with filtersetg. I will be sure to check out Rezjor's list tho.

Thank you.

Non native english learning mode kicking in ::: What is KISS method?
The DVD player?

 

KISS = Keep It Simple Stupid = going down the most simple path usually results in a better result.

TAS

 

Ah so anyone not interested in making their tabs advanced, are stupid.
Not really a good argument to make me switch from the stupid to the uh.. more clever side?

 

Bleh wish I was an native english speaking dude

 

My thanks to everyone for sharing. Have download firefox and company an will shortly install.

 

Say, to use Firefox will Sun Java also need to be installed ?

Thanks for replies

 

If you want certain websites to work, yes.

 

But will FIREFOX WORK ? Am not all that concerned about the websites working being very selective of which websites I visit. Don't really use java but on very rare events.

Thank You J for responding.....was about to install firefox when this thought hit me......guess I will just pass on using Firefox.....if it requires sun java
