Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon is a useful Firefox add-on designed to extend the blocking functionality of Adblock Plus to the annoying pop-up windows that are being opened on mouse click or other user actions.
By default, Firefox or Adblock Plus doesn't block any pop-ups that are opened on mouse clicks or other user events. This addon complements Adblock Plus with the pop-up blocking functionality.
Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon will integrate quickly into your Firefox and you will be able to easily manage it via the Add-ons window that you can access through the Tools menu.
The Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon add-on is cross-platform and it works on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux.
Here are some key features of "Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon":
There are two ways of getting rid of an unwanted pop-up with this addon:
· Adding the pop-up's url to Adblock Plus' filters. This will block just the individual pop-up (or any other pop-up which matches the pattern you decide to write).
· Creating a site rule in this addon's preferences for the opener site. This will prevent the opener site from opening pop-ups completely. This is especially useful for sites that change their pop-up urls frequently.
· You can do both of these tasks easily by right clicking on the pop-up window and selecting "Block this window".
Requirements:
· Firefox 3.5 - 12.0a1
