Never see another Google text ad… ever!

I did this...it works great!

Never see another Google text ad… ever!

snip

1. Download and install Mozilla Firefox. It’s a superior browser, and it should be your default browser. Internet Explorer (IE) just doesn’t cut it anymore.
2. Install the Adblock extension.
3. Restart Firefox to complete Adblock’s installation.
4. Go to the Tools > Extensions menu, highlight Adblock, and click the Options button.
5. In the New Filter: input box, paste this: http://*.googlesyndication.com/*
6. Ensure that in the Adblock preferences window, it is set to Remove ads, not Hide ads.
7. Never see another Google ad!

I love firefox. I found that flashblock is a great extension also, to keep those annoying flash ads out of my face (Punch the monkey, anyone?)

I installed Tab Effect on my firefox. makes the going from one tab to another more entertaining.

Good find.

Add NoScript to your Firefox repetoire. It doesn't let any scripts (java, shockwave, whatever) run unless you give it permission.

Also, be sure to get Adblock Filteset.G Updater. It keeps your Adblock up to date.
