FireFox Add-On For Ads

[ScottALot]

I have that add-on that you can right click and block ads that don't move... but what about the flash player ones? Those are the only ones that really annoy me... I'm playing a song and then Clorox stuff starts playing. How can I block those?

Wouldn't this work:https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433

Flashblock is an extension for the Mozilla, Firefox, and Netscape browsers that takes a pessimistic approach to dealing with Macromedia Flash content on a webpage and blocks ALL Flash content from loading. It then leaves placeholders on the webpage that allow you to click to download and then view the Flash content.

Try Ad-Block-Plus. It blocks all ads.

adblock plus is what I use.
Works great.
Also get BetterPrivacy to kill flash cookies.

I already have AdBlock... what I'm talking about are those things that sound like a commercial and ask for you to "interact" with the ad. A lot of sites I use have those, but when I'm listening to music it's like:

AWESOME SONG ... Windex is cool, y'all ... AWESOME SONG

And I'm all like: FREAKIN' SWEET ... WTF? ... What the hell was that?

You guys know what I'm talking about?

Also, it's 10:30, so this post's gonna be weird... I have weird sleep habits.

^^That's good stuff right there^^

Thanks for the laugh! Also, would the plugin in my first post not work? Those are flash-ads, right?

Oh my god, I didn't even see your post man! So far, it's worked, thanks so much.

And looking back at my post... that is kinda funny, but so true.

http://www.playlist.com/searchbeta/tracks#I'm Awesome/all/1 It's the 4th song... that's what I'm trying to listen to.

If you're trying to listen to music then just go to http://listen.grooveshark.com/ pretty damn good site.

And no. That is NOT advertisement.. Just helping out..

 

[ScottALot]

Thanks for the link, I'll use that if I can't find a song on playlist. (Though... 3$/month for no ads?)

The Addons I use are this.

FlashBlock
Adblock Plus
Adblock Plus Pop Up Addon


These have stopped most of the issues I have had

 

[ScottALot]

Thanks for the addition!

I used adblock plus back when i used firefox...now that i'm on chrome the adblocking softwares leave something to be desired, but still a much better tradeoff for speed, resources, and stability with chrome over firefox.

 

[ScottALot]

I use both...
speed, fast browsing, I use Chrome,
extended periods of time, need no ads, I use Firefox.

Same for me and Opera, though it's more awesome features than resource usage.
