How can I get rid of ads?

 Now-a-days Internet surfing has become the part of the life for almost every computer user. People of every age and kind visit websites. But there are most websites contain ads and other irrelevant stuff such as malware(harmful links containing viruses). Most of the stuff is not suitable for children as it may contains adult pictures etc. On the other hand many websites are providing free softwares to get rid of such ads. One of them is "Adblock Plus". It is very user friendly and easy to use, even though, it automatically does everything for us. 

 

What is Adblock Plus?

Adblock Plus lets you block annoying ads, tracking, malware and other things you may not want in your browser. Adblock Plus is an open source project.

 

How does Adblock Plus work?

Adblock Plus itself has no functionality, in the sense that it does not block anything until you "tell" it what to do by adding filter lists. These filter lists are essentially an extensive set of rules, which tell Adblock Plus which elements of websites to block. You can add any filter list you want, for example to block tracking or malware. You can also create your own filter lists.
Out of the box, two filter lists are enabled:
  • An ad-blocking list selected based on your language
  • The Acceptable Ads exception list
These are enabled to get you started. You can remove them, or add others - it's up to you. 

Features:

  • Block Ads
  • Allow Acceptable ads
  • Disable Tracking
  • Disable Malware Domains
  • Disable Social Media Buttons
  • Type Protection

 

How to install?

  1. First of all, Go to Adblock Plus official site :  https://adblockplus.org/
  2. This window will be shown to your browser: 
  3. Click on the encircled button, a pop up will appear
  4. Click on the "Allow". Downloading will start and after completion this window will appear :
     

  5. Click on the "Install" button. Ad block Plus will be installed
  6. A tab will open. In order to Adblock Plus to work properly , you have to carefully use this tab. Click on  the tab and scroll down and turn on the protection by clicking on the buttons. The buttons will turn to green.

I hope its an easy way to get rid of ads and irritating pop ups. If you have any question, please write in comments. Thanks
