Re: Web browsing faster
I use Adblock on Firefox. Works great. On some sites I have to turn it off temporarily or their videos won't play (CBS, Fox, ABC...anything I'm trying to watch a missed episode )

So far, the Chrome version is playing all the news videos without the advertisements....Facebook seems to be ad free.....

Re: Web browsing faster
another way to do it is to modify the hosts file. just hosts, no extension.
like this:
what it does, is, when 00inkjets.com tries to hook up to your browser, the ip protocol sends the request to that address, 127.0.0.1, which is a machine address that won't respond to the request. it goes into a dead-letter black hole.
this avoids putting yet another piece of software on the mach.
