Note that the first thing that I do after installing Flashblock is browse to Youtube and click "Allow Flash From This Site". > * additionally, AdBlock Plus (along with the Element Hiding Helper) can be used to block counters, ads designed to show up in your face and other crap like pocker games, etc. > > The "Do Not Track Me" option is a gag. > 100% correct. -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
