		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;As for not using any ad blocker program, iâ€™m not quite sure I follow. Why??&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Well, I don't think I explained this properly, but I don't think ad blocking is necessary nowadays, as long as you have a pop-up blocker of sorts, most websites don't integrate ads that seriously reduce the "browsing experience".&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;Adblock hasnâ€™t worked on my work PC since i installed 1.5 RC2. However, it still works lovely on my PC at home.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Well, it's &lt;em&gt;working&lt;/em&gt; on 1.5 RC3, but obviously some things aren't working properly. IMO, Adblock needs some serious work on it before I treat it as an extension I'd consider using. I mean, where is the white list (no I don't want to use Adblock Plus).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also, the external filtersets are just not comprehensive enough, and it doesn't have some sort of "intelligent" ad blocking which would be required to get a 99% success rate.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;and for some insane reason, right clicking on an ad and selecting â€œAdblockâ€? does nothing!&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That's because you're using BETA software, dummy! :P&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Adblock hasn't worked on my work PC since i installed 1.5 RC2. However, it still works lovely on my PC at home.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As for not using any ad blocker program, i'm not quite sure I follow. Why??&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Wait till 1.5 goes public and re-download a compatible version of Adblock, yummy! :)&lt;/p&gt;
