misterxOne of the small joys in life: stomping advertisers with Mozilla:
Right click any image, say "block images from this server". Poof. Advertising from that banner farm server goes away, never to be seen again. If I wanted to, I could define a custom user style sheet, and change any image with common banner dimensions to "display: none;".
Go into "manage cookies", check "Don't allow sites with removed cookies to set future cookies". Then remove all cookies from adclick, servedby, hitbox, coremetrics, adrevolver, etc. Now they aren't tracking me.
Mozilla already blocks popups so effectively, I forget that they used to bother me.
It handles most of my spam filtering needs too.
Gotta love it. :)
