Ironworks Gaming Forum - View Single Post - firefox's blocking images from outside server

Ok, I've done a bit of testing, and the Adblock Extension seems to be quite good. It is designed to do exactly what you want, and it doesn't seem to have the problems some of the earlier versions did. I use the bottom build of it on that page... I like to avoid the icon version, because the statusbar icon is annoyingly large. [img]smile.gif[/img]
I use the following filter for it:

code:

[Adblock]

/\D(588|468|234|120)x(600?|120|90)\D/

googlesyndication

us.yimg.com/a/

/\/buy_assets\//

/[\W\d_](top|bottom|left|right|)?banner(s|id=|\d|_)[\W\d]/

/[\W\d](double|fast)click[\W\d]/

/[\W\d]click(stream|thrutraffic|thru|xchange)[\W\d]/

/[\W\d]value(stream|xchange|click)[\W\d]/

/[\W\d]dime(xchange|click)[\W\d]/

/[\W\d](onlineads?|ad(banner|click|-?flow|frame|ima?g(es?)?|_id|js|log|serv(er|e)?|str  eam|_string|s|trix|type|vertisements?|v|vert|xchan  ge)?)[\W\d]/

[/QUOTE]Which seems to block everything I've come across, except for valid images. [img]smile.gif[/img] To use it, save that into a text file and import it through AdBlock's prefences dialogue.
