I use it along with Adblock plus to handle things just like this. But most the time I just ignor those empty boxes.. at least it's not some flashy ad. But this extension works well for this type of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceDogg Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 I don't use that extension so I don't know exactly where the setting is, but I would think there is a setting for that somewhere in that extension.
