Well not all, but most, and those annoying ads on youtube videos.

Let me know if you have any better solutions evil5

Are you using that version of adblock, and still able to read the stories here at Lush? I use AdBlock, and had to disable it here because it blocked all ads and the page content on any areas here with stories. The Forum was fine, because there aren't any ads here.

I don't mind, really, because I find it easy to tune out the sight of the ads. I love AdBlock for other sites, though, because it means I don't have to deal with those flashing ads and those incredibly annoying pop-up ads, or the ones that float across the screen.

I used AdBlock for a while, long ago, but it got annoying.

Now I use this, which I love. I just updated it, too. Instead of an ad loading up and using your CPU, it displays a "could not connect" message in its place. It's good for people with slow computers, or with providers that have a download maximum.
