Make browsing more comfortable by getting rid of ads

Adblock Plus is a Firefox add-on that allows you to block ads that appear on web pages.

As it’s for Firefox, Adblock Plus is a small, discreet program that sits in the top right corner of your navigation bar. Clicking on the red icon will bring up a list of blockable items on the page, while a drop-down list reveals more features and configuration options.

In order for Adblock Plus to work correctly, you will need to pick an Adblock filter. There are extensive instructions for picking the right one on the program's website, so don’t worry too much about it. If you’d prefer not to sign up to a list, you can choose the ads to block yourself.

Adblock Plus works by identifying the advertising on a web page and completely preventing it from appearing. There is a risk that Adblock Plus could accidentally block something that isn’t actually advertising, although in our tests this didn't happen.

Even if Adblock Plus does block a legitimate object, the website provides information about what to do - in fact, it provides information on just about every aspect of the program.

Viewing the internet with no ads is a very strange experience - you might even find yourself thinking that some of your favorite pages are looking a little empty!

Fancy ad-free browsing? Then Adblock Plus is definitely for you.

* Youtube video ads

* Facebook and Twitter ads

* Pop-ups and banners

* Sneaky ads that aren’t labeled as “ads”

The most beloved adblocker also offers optional protection against malware and tracking while letting you disable social media buttons that can track you if even if you never click “like.” Adblock Plus for Mozilla Firefox is currently equipped with over 40 potential filter lists.

Adblock Plus is proud to have started the Acceptable Ads initiative in order to provide a compromise to websites with non-intrusive ads (configurable).

Downloaded over 300 million times, Adblock Plus is a huge open source project supported by a large community of volunteers from everywhere around the globe.
