How to switch on the ad blocker
by Roland Wolf on Thursday 09/Jun/2005, @09:31

Hi Jim
I am using Konqueror with an open source ad-blocker:
http://www.privoxy.org
It removes all the blinking stuff from pages. The filter can be tailored to your needs. Give it a try.
Regards, Roland

Hmmm, that doesn't sound useful. If it removes all the bl*nking stuff from the page, what's left?

It's more useful and powerful than that, but it requires quite a bit of tweaking to adjust to your needs.

Sorry Roland, Privoxy just doesn't compare. With AdBlock, I see something annoying, I right-click, and block it. Messing around with a proxy every time I see something annoying is too much hassle, I'd rather just put up with the ads.
