However, there are some alternatives you could use to block ads:
|
|
||||||
+
|
|
||||||
* You can use a hosts file to block ads. Examples:
|
|
||||||
http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/[1],
|
|
||||||
http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm[2],
|
|
||||||
http://www.hosts-file.net/[3]
|
|
||||||
* Set up a http://www.privoxy.org/[Privoxy] proxy server and use it to
|
|
||||||
filter ads before they even get to the browser.
|
|
||||||
* Use https://opensource.conformal.com/wiki/Adsuck[adsuck] as a local DNS
|
|
||||||
server for blocking ads.
|
|
||||||
* Use the https://www.requestpolicy.com/[RequestPolicy] functionality to
|
|
||||||
block ads, which currently isn't implemented either.
|

If you think you can add ad blocking or request policy, please
