For the website to block the ads for firefox, do you have to put a * on the end to make it work or not

Yes. That acts as a wild card, so that all the ads in that directory are blocked.

Would it work the same way with the bottom ads, since there is a div called bottomban? I tried adding div.bottomban and it doesn't get rid of the ad.

[Dustin]

It doesnt get rid of the bottom ads. So if you're using Firefox and have adblock, simply right click them and click "Adblock Image" & sometimes they have Iframes, so you can also select "Adblock Iframe". And as for the flash ads, you just click on the "Adblock" button.

I using my moms computer, and she won't let me install firefox... It was worth a try.

[Mongrel]

Don't ask me how, but one of those filters got rid of a whole bunch of stuff I didn't want to get rid of. I can't click on things in my inventory anymore, for one, and for another, all the emoticons on HERE have vanished. How do I remove this filter?

EDIT: Nevermind, I figured it out. It was that first filter that went block-crazy.

how do i save as a .css file? it's not an option on the drop-down menu. i tried microsoft word and word processor.

[Huggles]

When you first go to save a text file, save it as filename.css or you can change the name later to filename.css. You should be using notepad if you're on windows as more complicated word processors might give you problems.
