Add Ovedose!

There is far too much adds in the forum lately, the front page has an unsteady and slowing loading 180Kb.( forum home pages rarely pass 40Kb)
It becomes difficult to spot the different categories amongst the Google ads, very annoying.

Re: Add Ovedose!

You guys need firefox w/ adblock plus. I don't see any of that stuff.

I also go straight to the forum, not the main page so that could be it too.

Firefox w/ Adblock plus is great. I don't know how you guys surf sites w/o it. I hardly see any ads.

Re: Add Ovedose!

With moderation everything is good including ads….

Adblock is working with Google chrome too. For IE8 the filters (rules.xlm) have to be imported in the InPrivate Filtering and IE8 need to run in that mode. To get IE8 starting in that mode the registry can be change using the file attached (InPrivate Filtering Auto.reg).
Attached Files
File Type: zip rules.zip (8.6 KB, 4 views)
File Type: zip InPrivate Filtering.zip (1.2 KB, 5 views)
