adblock - need some noob help

Post by Whistlingleaf »

I am running Firefox 1.5.0.4 on 2 computers and Adblock is on both...

On my old computer whenever there is an ad that I can block I see the small "adblock tab" under the ad, which I can click and make the ad poof.

On my new computer there is no "adblock tab" showing up on webpages.

I checked and double and triple checked all the settings and can't seem to find what I did differently.

Any thoughts ?

Thanks

ps: Would uninstalling FFox on the new comp and just copying over the FFox folder from the old comp work ?

Are you running Adblock or Adblock Plus? If running the former, uninstall it and replace it with the latter, as the former has major problems on 1.5.0.x.
There is a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.

Thanks that did the trick. I got adblock plus, and it works like a charm.
