It is a must have.
In Firefox simply goto Tools -> Addons...goto the tab on the left and type in Ad Block hit enter. Choose the application with the Stop Sign, click Install
It will ask to restart and upon restart it will bring up a list of servers...these are the servers that have the adblock lists, choose Easysomething or the other one in bold thats also in the states. Click OK and you are done.
Try going to a site like ESPN or CNN and where they used to have a little ad, they no longer do....same goes for some of the flash popup ones.
Must have for anyone who does anything on the internet. Especially searches anything or clicks any video stream from a strange site. (although it shouldn't ever mess with you because it's an embedded video) Unless you click to go full screen and it takes you to there site....then who knows about their safety.
Haven't been a fan of Adware or Spybot Search and Destroy since 2002. Malwarebyte Antispyware for the win when it comes to problems that have already taken effect....install boot Windows in Safe Mode and then scan and clean using Malwarebyte...that's the best way. Otherwise, it takes to long to fix...backup and format and resintall if you know how to do it.
