Firefox AdBlocker Lists

Wed May 02, 2007 6:22 pm

So I'm back. My computer had been stolen, so I've been MIA for a while. But here I am, just in time to be horrified by my "new and improved" ixis. But whatever. My point is, I installed adblocker for Firefox, added the obvious ad links to my list, then suddenly half the games wouldn't load. If I turn adblocker off, everything runs fine (just can't use the auction house to save my life). So... does anyone have a premade list for adblock, or a link for such? Sorry, once again, as I am the queen of posting in the wrong forum.

No worries.

My neopet adblocks are:

http://images.neopets.com/728ads/*
http://images.neopets.com/ads/*
http://images.neopets.com/buttons/*
http://images.neopets.com/sponsors/*


But I have to turn adblock off to play sposor games.
If you don't want to do such, omit the last one.

In the future, please post all questions like this in Neopets Help. :)

Also, if you do a search here in the forums, I'm sure you'll come across plenty of threads about what to block.

Hmm, that's odd, I have that last one on my list, but I never have problems playing sponsor games.

I just blocked everything on that list, but there are a lot of ads that still come up.. how do I block them? It's been like 2 years since I last used adblock so I'm rusty :/

Edit: They're flash, if that helps.

You go to Tools and put the cursor over adblock to get a drop down list that says List All Blockable Elements (Ctrl+Shift+A) to select what you want to block.

That's odd. A seperate window opens, but the flash game does not load but if I remove it or turn adblock off, it loads fine.
