Since the download link of ilboso's updater is broken I thought I release my version, based on his updater.
I've updated this tool with the possibility to add your own filters to the downloaded fanboy filter list. Just place a myfilter.txt file in your SRWare Iron folder and write the links you want to block in it, line by line.
And now that fanboy stops the support for iron blocklist in the new year, I've changed the updater to grab fanboy's Opera list and to convert it to a usable filterlist for Iron.
The Instructions stay nearly the same:
- download the attached file adblock_update.zip (or use mirror)
- unzip it
- open adblock_update.vbs with your favorite text editor (Notepad works well)
- near the top of the file, modify "source", "destination" and "myfilter" parameters to match your directories
Opera list, for Iron list use "https://secure.fanboy.co.nz/iron/adblock.ini"For 64bit System use : "C:\Program Files (x86)\SRWare Iron\adblock.ini" or similarCode: Select all
const source = "https://secure.fanboy.co.nz/opera/urlfilter.ini"
Code: Select all
const destination = "C:\Program Files\SRWare Iron\adblock.ini"
List with your own links, if you dont want this use: ""Code: Select all
const myfilter = "C:\Program Files\SRWare Iron\myfilter.txt"
- put the file in any directory of your choice
- double click it!
- if it's all ok, you can put it in autostart folder or schedule it with Windows built-in scheduler!
I hope it all works like it should, enjoy ...
