- Rated 2 out of 5by MartyVanB, a year agoAs it does block some ads, it's not total garbage -- hence the second star -- but there are far, far better options that you should avail yourself of.
If you insist on using this, do please look at all the options to better understand that this is a service looking to upsell you to premium and purposefully allows certain ads to pass through its filter. Frankly, you shouldn't trust them.Developer response
posted a year agoHi,
We are sorry to hear your experience with ABP has not been positive.
I believe you are referring to our Acceptable Ads program when saying that ABP "purposefully allows certain ads to pass through its filter." This program means that websites are permited to show certain ads on the page. However, those ads have to follow a series of criterias that are judged by a commitee (ie. not animated, non-intrusive, cannot block content, etc). Users can easily opt-out of seeing Acceptable Ads on their ABP settings page.
If you would like us to investigate any issues you are experiencing, don't hesitate to contact us via support@adblockplus.org. We will be happy to help! - Rated 2 out of 5by martinst, a year agoShows how many items are blocked on a site but not which. Annoying because of blinking ads, also to social media sites.

- Rated 2 out of 5by piorunz, 2 years agoRecently, picking objects on a page to block it have stopped working. If I click a simple jpg image, block it, it will be blocked during preview, but when I refresh the page, it's back again. And it's the same URL, not newly generated one. I have replaced Adblock Plus with "AdBlock — best ad blocker" and it's working fine. Any object can be blocked on a page now.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Bill, 2 years agoAdblock works when they want it to work. It blocks ads. It even allows you to make custom blocks. BUT it has no means to import custom lists you have already built. Which mean you have to re-import each rule one by one on each installation. Extremely tedious. Especially when you can include Adblock's own lists with a simple two clicks. Import was a feature they REMOVED in a previous version, for no obvious reason except to make the software less useful. If you like the pre-built lists, great. If you want to roll your own, Beware.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 15132463, 2 years agoI used to be very satisfied of this add-on but it recently stopped working; happened on my parent's PC first but now on mine as well. You cannot check the three squares for manual blocking and the ads show up on Youtube at random moments whereas it used to block every single ad, also on other websites the ads show up now. It has become useless.
