adblock-grab.gifIt seems that almost every website you visit features an advert of some kind, not only are they annoying but they may also hinder browsing as the adverts are often located away from the page or site and require more loading time. Avoiding these adverts is almost impossible so he only way of preventing them is by using an ad-blocking utility so that you can browse the web without any hindrance.

Adblock Plus 1.0.1 is a Firefox addon that enables you to prevent annoying adverts from loading. Once you've downloaded the application, right click a particular add and it will not be downloaded again. You can also use a filter subscription and automatically prevent unwanted ads. This utility will prevent in-line ads from loading, but not pop-ups.
