I am not talking about pop-ups. You do not need a pop-up blocker when using firefox. I am talking about advertisements and other objects IN WEB PAGES of which, this tweetboard is an example.If you are using firefox, you will get no pop-up adverts of any kind, unless in your preferences you are allowing pop-ups. You do not need a pop-up blocker when using firefox.NoAds allows you to block all windows that open up and once you block them, they never appear again. It also allows you to use wild cards so let's just say you did not want "google ads" to pop up on your screen but they come in "google ads by Walmart" and "google ads by Best Buy" etc. You can use the wild card "google ads" and say good bye to those damned pop ups.
With a good adware program preventing the installation of adware, you can say good by the that crap real quick like.

AdBlock is a firefox add-on and blocks ads which appear on web pages you have requested. Like USMB for example has many adverts on its pages. I see none of them.
NoAds blocks all pop ups even when you are not using your browser.
It appears AdBlock and NoAds do different things.

And in addition, NoAds gets some pretty poor reviews:
Again, please explain why you need a pop-up blocker when running firefox.
