    Do use an ad-blocker?

    I just started using Safari Block (since I use Safari). I really like it! I hated always seeing those anoying PoxNora ads whenever I went to websites.

    Er...well...I think Google Chrome blocks some ads by default.

    Epiphany blocks a number of ADs on it's own... dunno how to control it.

    I use Firefox, so I have Adblock Plus. I can't bear ads (and I'm saving on our (20GB) cap as well).

    I love firefox ad-block plus. That is the main reason I can't switch to chrome.

    More or less; Opera's urlfilter.ini file takes care of this easily. I've never had a problem with ads though, just don't seem to find them distractive that much, I'm always concentrating on the main content of the site. The ones you get between two pages get annoying though.
