Bob Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 How do I prevent those bloody annoying animated banners, adverts, floating expanding adverts, etc. in Firefox without affecting the stuff that I want to see? Every time I go into my BTmail inbox I've got some dopy american tarts singing at me about the new McDonalds dog-burger, and it's pissing me right off! Any techy stuff from the many clever IT people we have here is appreciated But make it fairly idiot-proof for me, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I use Adblock (I think). Works a treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I use Adblock (I think). Works a treat. And Adblock is an plug-in for firefox too, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 And Adblock is an plug-in for firefox too, isn't it? I didn't know it was anything else! It comes up as a little red hexagon sign on the toolbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I didn't know it was anything else! You're probably right. Hey - I know nothing about IT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 You're probably right. Hey - I know nothing about IT. Me neither. Which probably explains why I can't afford a Corvette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
