0 Boo Berry Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I used to use proxy filter like Ad Muncher, Adfender, and recently Ad guard. However, they are useless against HTTPS sites. HTTPS is filtered in Adguard 5.7 and above and it works fine with HTTPS sites. I've been testing Skype and I'm not seeing any ads at all when filtering.

0 i_was_here Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 @Neowin staff - sorry, if people are going to block ads they're going to block ads. Banning / removing posts is a bit childish. By all means encourage people to whitelist the site (as I do) but some people just don't want ads anywhere. It's probably better to accept it rather than taking a draconian attitude towards it. To be fair to Neowin, all they ask is that you don't brag about it. You won't get banned for simply mentioning you use an ad blocker else almost everyone in this thread should be banned.

0 gohpep Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Still use this Tracking Protection tweak for Internet Explorer. http://www.learnwithnirab.com/2011/11/block-ads-in-ie9-adblock-plus.html PS: I have it disabled for Neowin, though. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 i_was_here Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 @Domelo - Ruined your system how? Except for the Android version, ABP is usually for an individual browser so I don't think it could royally screw your system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Boo Berry Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Yeah, I'm also curious how Adblock Plus can ruin a system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except for the Android version, ABP is usually for an individual browser so I don't think it could royally screw your system. It doesn't do anything to your system. I think he's a shill for Adguard. He's only got two posts and both are promoting Adguard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Boo Berry Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Never have had that issue with Adblock Plus for Android. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Boo Berry Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 It's just the way you worded it though. Saying Adblock Plus ruined your system is bound to get some (mostly negative) attention. :P I used Adblock Plus for years (and I still do on Android) and I've NEVER heard of such an issue.
