Ad blocking features
Many Web sites are using more aggressive techniques to
draw attention to the ads on their pages. Some have
begun using larger, more prominent ads, while others
rely on ad windows that appear when you enter or leave
the site. Along with increasing the amount of time that it
takes to display Web pages, some ads contain offensive
content, cause software conflicts, or use HTML tricks to
open additional browser windows.
The following features can help you better control these
unwanted advertisements.
Ad blocking Blocks ads based on user-defined criteria
Pop-up blocking Blocks pop-up windows based on user-defined criteria
