hello,

i use windows 7 and palemoon browser
(an off shoot of 'firefox' browser)

my computer crashed
so had to restart

and now my internet is back, full of ads
(mostly yahoo and youtube cooking videos)

does anyone know of a good ad blocker please?

i have the add-on 'ad block latitude' installed
but it doesn't seem to be doing much good

thanks for any suggestions

cheers and eat well,

hello,

@ jam-s: thanks for the idea
i tracked uBlock origin down
but it will only install on 'chrome' or 'firefox' browsers

i use 'palemoon' browser on windows 7

so no joy

still looking, if anyone else has ideas please

cheers and papaya salad,

hello,

@ Floyd42: i have 'adblock latitude' running now
but it doesn't do as well a job as the previous version of another ad blocker i was running

i didn't write down the name of the other ad blocker (my mistake)

so i am still looking

thank you very much for the help

danke shun

my oma lived in potsdam
across the street from sans soucci park (sp)
as a teen ager she would boil bloody linens for the hospital
during ww2
she would walk back home through the park
russian soldiers would shoot at her
not meaning to hit her, more of a joke kind of thing
oma was not political, just helping her people out
later, she would be captured and placed in a russian concentration camp for about 2 years


cheers and eat well,

It can be done, but only with an older version of uBlock: https://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.p ... c=148391.0
