Anyone know of a free downloadable ad blocker?
Hi, does anyone know on here where i can download a good ad blocker? It has to
- block banner ads
- block pop ups
If anyone has any good recommendations let me know by posting replies.

Google toolbar does the pop up blocking job for me but there are other tools

Provided you're on a single computer, the following is quite effective against banners and can be used (I think) in conjunction with a popup blocker.

Re: Anyone know of a free downloadable ad blocker?
looks like google wins then  but you could have a look at
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firebird/
excellent browser beats ie hands down and blocks all the junk you find when surfing.

Re: Anyone know of a free downloadable ad blocker?
I have Mozilla Firebird it works a treat. But when i go to my website HERE the image of me i shifted over to the left and it should be in the centre. Whrn i go to view the source of the page it says that the image is in the centre. What do i do about this?
