Title: Any recommendations for Ad blocker for IE8?

 Mozilla is not compatible with Nortons 360 and wont show the nortons  toolbar.       I do miss Adblocker.

try using the "in private" browsing function in IE8

if you're looking to block stuff like the banner ads on the group, it doesnt work there for me, and I sort of feel they help pay for our free use anyway so have developed selective blindness to cope with them.

Thanks Nitz...will try that.      You are right of course....ads = free forum. ;D

My dear old compac bit the dust just when I was thinking about doing the backup yesterday....  bought an Acer so back to the drawing board.       Was surprised to find it came with XP.  Now have one on XP, one on W7 and the other on Vista. ::)
