What Other Browsers have a competent Ad Blocker?

Okay, I've just about had it with Firefox. about the only thing keeping me on it for the last...Dozen upgrades or so is that I haven't been able to find a replacement for AdBlockPlus, which is pretty much a godsend. Even the ABP extension for Chrome sucked ass when I tried it, albeit over a year (maybe two) ago.

So the question is, what other browser, if any, has a competent Ad Blocker? Ad if there is one, please kindly link the extension/app/whatever url to me.


“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”

I use IE and have no problems with ads!

I never have issues with Chrome's ad-block. You just have to add filtersets to it in order to benefit the most. Although I just realized mine doesn't have any of the old filters I used to use, and I still don't have issues.

What exactly are you having issues with?

I haven't had a youtube ad in years, and I rarely if ever get pop-up ads while browsing. You can also customize it to block certain ads on pages you frequent a lot. Can add certain code structures to be auto-blocked when you visit a page.

Dunno. What exactly are you wanting out of an ad blocker?

Chrome's ABP is working fine for me. If it didn't I'd be right back to Firefox.

tried ABP out for the sites I use for streaming since they like to piss adverts, still getting pop-ups every time I click anything. How do I fix thisss

Use this for chrome, rather than ad block pro which doesn't seem great there. I gave up on Firefox 2 years ago, and it doesn't look any better every time I go back.
