| 1378072 | 2014-06-28 06:34:00 | Tried that once it did stuff all. And didnt block much. The TPL's in IE 11 blocked more than that | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1378073 | 2014-06-29 22:42:00 | admuncher is pretty good.. one app to block ads (and other crud) in all browsers. I've been using it a few years ... be interesting to see what the new version is like. |

| 1378077 | 2014-06-30 01:41:00 | The thing I've noticed about ad blockers is that recently sites have made videos only run if the adblock is disabled so they can show "sponsors messages". I've seen this on the BBC site and also CNET. This certainly happens in Chrome, not so sure about other browsers. | Tony (4941) | ||
