Joni_78 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Is there any way on Windows 8 (like hosts file) or Internet Explorer 10 to get rid of ads? I've newer used any ad blocker, but now I'm getting really tired on those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Here you go. http://www.iegallery.com/en-us/trackingprotectionlists I use EasyList, and Fanboy's AdBlock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George P Global Moderator Posted November 13, 2012 Global Moderator Share Posted November 13, 2012 MS has a few TPLs up, I have two from their list up and they block all the ads so far. http://www.iegallery.com/en-us/trackingprotectionlists This should be the link. I run the PrivacyChoice - all companies list and the EasyList Standard. They've added more since I checked last time though so give them a go, you can have as many as you want loaded anyways.

Seketh Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Is it possible to block v?deo ads, like AdBlock does in Chrome? Also, any functional way to have a "click to play flash content" like in Chrome? I like Chrome, but on my low-voltage Core i3 laptop, IE10 is definitely faster, probably due to GPU acceleration.
