1206897 2011-06-04 17:51:00 Hi PJ, you don't need an add-on, just add the following sites to your Restricted Zone under the Security Zone in Tools/Internet Options:

doubleclick.net
googlesyndication.com

This will remove a significant proportion of ads and tracking from all websites. There's a longer list of the main sites to here if you're interested in more:
forums.opendns.com

cheers

PJ, sorry to hear it's too heavy for you ! but the good folk on here steered this "sprung chicken" through it.

The smilies now take up most of the room on here, lol.

Kind regards,
