More problems after update (unrelated to the adblock since i'm used to privoxy anyway):

a) Bad looking icon (the previous one was awesome) , here's a shot of the taskbar

b) Unable to use the theme I was using before (gnome theme). Crashes Iron.

If you want an alternative ad blocker/banner blocker/pop-up blocker to what is included in Iron you can try BFilter at http://bfilter.sourceforge.net/

I've used it for a couple years and am quite happy with it. Occasionally you'll have to disable it if you run across some scripts in sites.

BFilter is a filtering web proxy. It was originally intended for removing banner ads only, but since then its capabilities have been greatly extended. Unlike most of the similar tools, it doesn't rely on blacklists (although it does support them). The problem with blacklists is that advertisers are always one step ahead. You see an ad slip through, you update your blacklist, and in case it didn't help, you add a new entry yourself. Once I got tired of that, I decided to write a proxy that would detect ads heuristically, much like modern anti-virus software manages to detect many viruses unknown to it.

BFilter is Free software released under the General Public License (version 2 or later).
