Ads

I know i probably asked this question before but maybe i just didn't get it. I have got adblock plus for firefox but still getting ads all over TSF, is there something else i can do to get rid or is it cos i have google as my homepage?

Re: Ads

make sure the disabling of ads is allowed at TSF before proceeding.

(after going over the rules one more time) it doesn't say anything about that being against the rules. i think with adblock, you have to configure each banner you want to block as you go (i don't have it, but i think it's right-click on the banner and block with Adblock, or something like that).

Re: Ads

Why would you want to do that? Along with donations, ads help keep TSF running.

Aha, at last someone has said it. Thanks EB, subject closed.

@Beefers, Thanks mate, yeah i think maybe it was IE-Spyad/Zonealarm that was keeping me ad free on my setup before it went down.
