Re: How to make adblock work
Currently our adblock is not yet supported in the Linux-version. But you can use adsweep instead.

A freebie for you,
I managed to get Adsweep as a user script working for Iron under Lunix (Ubuntu 9.04). Here's how:
I stumbled upon a shell script in the Ubuntu forum that installs Google's Chrome under Ubuntu and carved up the script to only prepare the required directories and download Adsweep.
All you have to do is to make sure that you execute Iron with the option.
I tried to upload the shell script here but the '.sh' extension is not allowed, neither is no extension, neither is the '.txt' extension. I ran out of patience so here is the script, just copy and paste into a file, make the file executable and run it.
One more task you need to be concerned about. Updates to the Adsweep file. Create a shell script from this:
Then run the shell script in a cron job to update once a day.
Enjoy,
Rick
