![]() ![]() If you move the layout within the first couple seconds to place an ad where something else just was to cheat a click on an ad in, I don't tolerate that. If I am interested in an ad, I will click on it. If I go to click somewhere and the page layout changes, I stop visiting that website. Oh, and pages that load in a way that moves content around. Also pages that are more ads than content (looking at you, PC Gamer). If a website mandates these, I don't visit it. Pop-up ads, ones that play sound (either automatically, or on hover), or video ads are things I don't tolerate. The day it stops working there is the day I stop watching non-embedded Youtube videos. Other than when I watch a video from a website where I have Adblock plus disabled, I have never seen a single ad on Youtube, and it is wonderful. Some time later (I can't remember when, but it was still in the pre-Windows 7 days), I started using AdBlock Plus with it. I've been using it ever since, so apparently I've been using it for over 18 years now. I figured rather than opening Notepad or whatever to save posts in, I'd just try the browser called Firefox everyone was raving about. Guess what? The annoying part was, whenever it crashed, it also cleared the contents of the clipboard for some reason. After it had done it a number of times, I started copying any post that wasn't real short into the clipboard before posting in case it had crashed. * The "Last updates" date shown for the Ad Muncher program is now calculated based on the filetime of admunch.I started using Firefox before the 1.0 release in the Windows XP days, because Internet Explorer crashed one too many times whenever trying to post to forums. * Fixed tooltip text to also include list version The cache clearing code also now shouldn't delete. * Minor interface enhancements for the installer Previously the entire codebase would have to be loaded into each process running on your system, whereas now only the patching code itself is * Finally got around to separating the hook and filter/interface portions of Ad Muncher's code into separate DLLs. * Implemented the already-written automatic cache clearing system into Ad Muncher and the Ad Muncher installer - finally you won't have to manually clear their caches when installing or reconfiguring Ad Muncher This will now allow us to include components we have been writing in C into the main Ad Muncher ASM tree without rewriting the entire program (though this is the eventual goal * Developed some simple systems to convert GCC's assembly output to TASM syntax. * Rewrote the trial-version expiry code to fix a few minor problems and increase reliability and accuracy This was done to aid bug reports of the lists and help ensur For example, Version 4.6 Build 10444/1005 is using build 1005 of the default filter list. * The version build number shown by Ad Muncher now includes the current build of the default filter list. * Fixed some race conditions caused by some buffers that were shared between multiple threads * By request, the (somewhat obvious) explanation text next to the "My Filters" list can be toggled on and off by clicking on it ![]() Previous versions of Ad Muncher would always check once a month, now you can select monthly, weekly or daily checks (with weekly being the new default) * Rearranged the update tab and implemented a control to select the frequency of update checks. * Rewrote part of the automatic update system to fix several minor update reliability problems * Fixed bug with the handling of certain types of HTML comment tags (or rather, discovered a further intricacy of IE's comment-tag handling and modified Ad Muncher to emulate it) * Implemented a temporary workaround to the conflict with McAfee Enterprise 8.0i that could cause browser crashes Includes extensive options for those who like to tinker, allowing you to remove anything that annoys you. Filters quickly and reliably, thanks to six years of constant development and feedback from users. Speeds up page loading, thanks to the missing adverts and popups. Blocks adverts in programs like ICQ, Morpheus, Kazaa, Grokster, Opera, PalTalk, iMesh, Bearshare, LimeWire, etc. Blocks unwanted popups in all browsers.
