so i installed an extension to my firefox called AD-block that was gonna block all the unwanted ads. but then i realised it did this to abandonia forum http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/2672/wtfffsi6.jpg

and youtube has the same problem.

ahahahaha... LOL LOL LOL....

you're blocking all *.css files, those are just stylesheets for visual formatting.

Himmler 17-09-2006 11:11 PM

so what should i do? i already uninstalled the damn extension?
if i reinstall it can i find some settings that would enable those css back?

I've got Adblock installed, but I don't know if it's the same program, since you say it's Ad-Block with a - character

- Go to extra's/extensions
- then double-click on adblock
- you should see a list of blocked url's, delete the item you want by selecting it and pressing the delete key. You can also disable it there with a checkbox.

Is this a decent adblocker program. I have been dying to find a better adblocker for firefox. I hate those dang pop ups. Yet I do not want to download it if I going to have these kind of problems with it. Also does this block the pop-ups that come through java?

You won't. It's probably an error on Himmler's side, not on Adblock's. It won't happen to you.

No. For that you have to get NoScript and forbid some sites from using java.

Could you walk me threw the process of turning off the scripts for java ads and if it does not block java pop-ups what is the difference between this program and the built in adblocker that comes with Firefox? Not complaining just tring to understand better.

Himmler 27-09-2006 04:52 PM

stick with the default...it will be the same. i must say that noscript and ad-block really slowed down my speed

HappyGamer 27-09-2006 06:09 PM

Thanks Himmler. I will do that since I am still using dial up and my speed is already slow enough. Oh well! I guess I will stick with the half working ad blocker on firefox for the time being. I really wish they would get the support that IE has for pop ups. I mean for IE it seems everybody and there mother has done an pop-up blocker for IE. Why not for FireFox?

IE is dead ;)
