    So, ok you do not want adverts while you're RSing, AB-ing or just to speed up the loading time of neopets/any other page.

    there are 2 MAIN methods I will teach you here.

    ok, for the first method,
    this is called the browser method. Because you need an internet browser to actually view the page and stuff, this method uses the browser to block these ads.

    Internet Explorer
    this browser is full of problems. and i do not see why you are actually using it.
    well, blocking ads for IE...
    one way is to download a internet explorer ad blocking add-on called IE7Pro, as the name suggests, it's for IE7.
    http://www.ie7pro.com/
    that's about it.

    Firefox
    ah, this browser, my favourite.
    ok for firefox, the fav. method of blocking ads is,
    download the extension called 'adblock plus'
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865

    and another extension called 'Adblock Filterset.G Updater 0.3.1.3'
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1136

    if you want to adblock anything on a page, just right click and select Adblock Image/whatever.

    Safari
    for installing a program : check this site out.

    playing around with safari system files, read this :
    http://www.ehow.com/how_4560605_block-ads-safari.html
    http://www.beatnikpad.com/archives/2003 ... adblocking

    now the second method, called the host file method.
    for this, you have to edit a host file.

    for different platforms of windows :

    Windows 95/98/Me c:\windows\hosts

    Windows NT/2000/XP Pro c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

    Windows XP Home c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts



    now go in there and paste this code
    127.0.0.1 media.fastclick.net
    127.0.0.1 http://www.budsinc.com
    127.0.0.1 abcsearch.com

    And you still posted it, knowing that? Locked. Anyone who reads, take this as a what-not-to-do-on-NF, or a how-to-lose-forum-cash-by-doing-stupid-things.
