Remove ads… edit: if you know know wtf you’re doing then just go here [http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/adblock](http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/adblock) heres my instructions on how to block almost all ads in firefox 1. Install the ChromEdit extension ( [https://addons.update.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&version=1.0&os=Windows&id=17](https://addons.update.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&version=1.0&os=Windows&id=17) ) 2. Go to the tools menu and click “Edit User Files” 3. Go to the “userContent.css” tab 4. Go to this link and copy the code. [http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/adblock](http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/adblock) 5. Paste it in your userContent.css file and click save 6. Restart your browser 7. Enjoy ad-free surfing! In case you’re wondering how this works, it just blocks elements in the page that are the same as those specified in your userContent.css, so it doesnt even load the image/iframe/whatever (unlike Adblock). ---

i wouldnt think because the add would still be on the page, the browser would just filter out the image id imagine… Im not installing it, i just found it over on OT and figured someone may want it here ---

I don’t mind firefox, but i prefer Avant Browser… its “tabbed” - only at the bottom instaed of the top, has a great pop-up blocker and some other great features… and best of all… its great for those who have dial-up… b/c its essentially just an upgrade to IE, so its really small, not several megs like Firefox ---

Im forced to use it for my bank. I heard MyIE isnt that bad either.
