Adblock Plus (Firefox)


Sonar

Recommended Posts

You could try installing Memory Fox. This would help with lowering the memory used by add-ons and the browser itself.

It seems adblock plus has some sort of bug.

I had the slow downs while on windows 8 and thought nothing of it.

After changing to "adban" all worked fine and now after installing "adblock edge" it all seems fine again.

I guess what ever edge add/removes on the coding its cleared out the problem im facing.

Switched back to Adblock Plus, since the latest update of Adblock Edge has known issues. So far, no slowdown or buggy behaviour. I have Memory Fox, DNTMe, and NoScript working with ABP on Firefox 18 final.

i'm not sure why but adb edge seems to have the same problem as adb plus.

went back to adban - had no popups - but i guess noscript could stop them?

its kinda crazy!

naah, a few extra cycles for a CLEAN browsing, to me is a fair price to pay...then again, with an i7 it doesn't really matter how high the cpu usage is.

regarding ABP Edge...i would use it if only it was compatible with ABP's Element hiding helper

btw, i use several fanboy's lists. and my custom filter list is rather large as well.

@VileTouch:

ABE is compatible with ABP's Element Hiding Helper.

In fact, you can import your settings by copying elemhide.ini and patterns.ini from ABP to ABE inside your Firefox profile folder.
