Pop-Ups in YouTube (Off Topic)
« on: October 02, 2015, 10:04:22 PM »
Does anyone know how to block those freaking pop-ups in YouTube videos?
They are in almost every single video and I'm tired of them. Very sick and tired of them.

Para-Noid@ I guess you are talking about the small banner ad's displayed over the videos themselves that you can x out of, Adguard automatically blocks all of those for me.

That is what I was referring to. Maybe I should switch to Adguard.

I you go for Adguard make sure that you tick the WFP network driver box in Settings - Network ( then reboot ), you'll need that for the Adguard Assistant to function correctly in IE and Edge.

Thanks! But I don't use either IE or Edge.
The only browser I use is Firefox. I don't even have Chrome installed anymore.
