Grrr, don't you guys read - for IE7 :rolleyes:

I know a lot of you reommend Firefox, but call me weird, I just don't like it

So, is there anything suitable for IE7?

Diggsy · 4 Apr 2009 at 16:22

Now, back on topic - suggestions please? The only one I have found thus far is ad muncher... http://www.admuncher.com/ , but I really want a decent free solution that comes recommended.

IE7 PRO

That looks pretty good. Any others out there?

What a surprise, the firefox trolls are about.... A disease of zealotry that rivals that of the best religious fanatics.

I agree with Paradigm, IE7 pro is probably about the best out there.

Didn't realise that, might have to give it a go. Thanks

You should be able to make InPrivate Browsing download the same list of regular expressions as AdBlock (Plus) too but the downside is you have to use Porn Mode all the time to get the benefit, AIUI, so your history, cookies, cache etc. would get nuked when you closed the browser.

AdMuncher http://www.admuncher.com/ any day of the week and twice on sundays.

Stuningly good bit of software, blocks Ads, scripts etc, auto updates, has anonymous surfing options in the registered version etc.

Blocks ads in MSN messenger etc at the same time

Admuncher is one of the two bits of software I can't use a machine without (The other is my preffered media player, but I'm not going into that now). Nothing else comes close on blocking all the rubbish

Thanks guys. Does it have to be paid for, or is that just for extra features?

I'm a long time advocate of Admuncher - I've used it for about 8 years. It is payware, though you can get it for free via trialpay - check out the bottom of this page.

After using it you'll wonder how you coped with adblock or pretty any other alternative.

Probably the main reason I haven't experienced any malware in 10yrs of PC ownership is Admuncher deployment.

does it work for firefox 3?

Ratbag · 5 Apr 2009 at 16:12

It works for all browsers and messenger etc.
