Firefox Blocker?!

[Knocksious]

It seems some people want to block Firefox users from viewing their websites, because of an app called "AdBlock-Plus"

who ever hates ad's sai "I"

I! dude, what sane person who does not like add's not try to block them? thats not communism, it's logic. If the people you are working for don't like ad's then they will try and give you the option for them. I use Opera, but it has something like it. I mean, I'm sure everyone wants to be payed for there work, but i am sure that everyone else does not want to pay as well. *there are some things you are willing to pay for reasons that be*

Their loss.
If someone is stupid enough to block my browser because I don't want to burden my connection with his ads then I better not see his site anyway.

1. Go to about:config.
2. Change general.useragent.extra.firefox to something else than Firefox.
3. Realize that the content of the only site that blocks firefox for above reason is mostly filled with blog posts about how great he is that he blocks firefox.
4. Change general.useragent.extra.firefox back to default.

Meh, if you have the luxury to decide what people visit your site then I really thought that the content must be something extraordinary.

Lol. Or you could just skip all that and not bother even goin to the loser that blocks firefox users' site. I use ABP and I love it. Specially you go to sites that MASS popups and nasty ads, its SOOOOOOOO helpful.

Yeah some sites are just gay with ads, like dating ads or some half naked girls on some flash banner blinking in my face. Thats when Adblock comes in and just blocks all that stuff so my mom doesnt walk in and get the wrong idea...like last time =P

Ads really suck, and I agree with MeRcChRis, lol >_<

Great.

Now the people who come on your site are all guaranteed (are they?) to see your ads.

But you get less people visiting anyway so...

Pretty much pointless if you ask me

And who honestly wants less users visiting their website?

Omg, I can't agree more. Same here.

Ad Block Plus
it is a freeware add-on for firefox that stops you from looking at ads
