    Default Adblock: quick question

    As I said, a quick question.

    I use Mozilla Firefox. On another forum I frequent, I used to be able to block out avatars -- there were certain images I found disturbing or just annoying and didn't want them spoiling my reading pleasure. Now it seems I can't do that any more -- when I do the same thing I did before, right-click and choose "Block images from..." from the menu, it blocks all avatars from that forum. Why? Is it because the forum itself has changed the way avatars are stored? Is there any way I can block certain avatars without losing all of them?

    That "Block Images From..." thing is just a feature of firefox. What you want to be doing is rightclicking the image and hitting "Adblock Image".

    I'll rent a ferris wheel and
    cotton candy machine and have open bar
    with all the Pabst that you can drink
    the PA blasting my Clash records.
    You'll finally know that life's okay
    Even when bad things happen"

    I hope I am not one of the causes of this.

    I did say another forum.

    And thanks Sam. Just me being forgetful after all. Can this topic be locked now?
