Hi guys: i have Addblock but latley i've been confronted with this site firstrawsports where i watch alot of sports,with a page telling me to desable adblock i hate those adds,since clickling on the x (exit) and some times start to download stuff, use not to be like that before in Firefox or Chrome, since the adblockplus or other use to block the adds and still let us stream safely.
Today i came across these set of instructions but i need some guidance on how to put them to use, thanks.

I don't see this going to the site. I do have ghostery and privacybager installed so maybe it's blocking that crap.

https://www.ghostery.com/en/

https://www.eff.org/privacybadger

Install those and see if you still have problems.

Note that if you use PayPal or eBay you will have to allow their cookies in privacybager.

I tried looking for a Greasemonkey scrip for this as that would invoke the actions of striping the word adblock from the elements which wouldn't be too hard to do with a script, but the userscript website doesn't have their search box and I can't search for a script to do that. Google was no help searching for a script either.

I use Adblock Edge.

I followed the instructions and can't find the word adblock under the HTML.

Thanks jhon Connor; i was able to do it on Google Chrome, by by adds , those things get me crazy,special on win7. on Mozila i'm yet to see if i can do it,but i only use Firefox on 2 machines due lack of mem otherrwise i would use google chrome cause is faster and less kranky.

Most of that odd ball crap is scripts and not "ads" themselves. It is one thing to ask nice to not block ads but another to throw random trash on the screen to complain about it. I generally make a mission to read / watch whatever I was looking for on those site just because.

The main issue I have had is ad servers are a huge vector for malware so it is hard to justify allowing them.

What? You cross posted on computerforms and I wanted to inform people that I already helped you. What more do you want?

First thing what Computersforum has to do with AnandTech ?

and it's not the first time you do it!

it's not polite the way you say it kinda sarcastic, Why you have to inform people denouncing that i'm a member here, i never done that to anybody,
besides your solution is not that great, see some reviews.

Realy poor addon. It found the trackers, yes but didn't block they by default. Why?

First support the trackers and then the user hmm?
Sorry, but the addon Disconnect is much better.

Chill out man, there is nothing wrong with cross posting, and further there is nothing wrong with letting folks know an answer was posted elsewhere. If you dont like Johns answer, move to the next one. Hes providing his help for FREE.

Please guys do not butt in it's not your business. itś not normal to post help in other forum the way he did,if he want to type to me he can do it strait to me


Sarcastically his post was like this:


He also posted this in Anandtech and I didn't get the Adblock listed in the HTML elements. I told him to install Ghostery and Privacybagger.

I use Adblock Edge.
