iOS: Adblock's standalone browser arrived on Android a few months ago and today it's on iOS. As you'd expect, it blocks ads and tracking.
Despite their necessity, blocking ads is something we all need to do sometimes. AdFree is a simple, one-touch ad blocker for your rooted Android phone.
You might think Google would find the fast-growing number and popularity of ad-blocking extensions for Chrome problematic, given that the search firm rises and falls on advertising revenue.
Apart from loading web pages, there's one thing that most of our readers want their browser to do: Block annoying advertisements. Web site Neowin points out that Internet Explorer 8's InPrivate feature does just that.
Previously mentioned ad blocker AdSweep has updated its home page and bundled its user extension to make installation on Google Chrome much more simple.
Mac OS X only: Free, open-source application GlimmerBlocker adds a new preference pane to your System Preferences that brings system-wide ad blocking to your Mac. Just install GlimmerBlocker and let it do its work. You can add custom filters, track your ad-blocking history, and even allow your iPhone or iPod touch to use the GlimmerBlocker filters on your network. Firefox users already have the beloved Adblock Plus extension, but if you ever use a different browser or you'd prefer to manage your ad blocking through a robust preference pane, GlimmerBlocker does the trick. GlimmerBlocker is a free download, Mac OS X Leopard only.
