1391736 2015-01-08 17:03:00 Sorry guys for the post but somebody posted a name for a FB adblocker. I installed it and all I know it works pretty well. SWMBO asked me yesterday about the same but for the life of me I can't find the post, and therefore the name. I use FF and got AdBlocker Plus and Ghostery installed as add-ons

But don't forget that without advertising money those sites cant exist.

I don't think Farcebook would ever have a problem - but then I wouldn't care much if it did...

As for ad blocking - I've said it so many times... just edit your Hosts file - it'll cut 95% of all adverts.

Online advertising is the scourge of the Internet - similar to magazine adverts. Why the feck should we pay to see what other shytes want to sell us? Grief! :groan:
