Adblock is a special add-on with which you can get rid of intrusive ads on Youtube, VK, Facebook and other sites. It also does an excellent job of blocking pop-ups, banners, and other such notifications.

Then, using the slider, you will need to select the appropriate blocking rule. To determine its effectiveness, use the "Preview" function.

To disable this add-on on the site, click on the arrow next to the extension icon and select "Disable on this site" from the menu that appears. The effectiveness of the blocker depends on the number of installed filters. However, if there are too many of them, the browser will load pages more slowly.

In addition, such abuse may cause some sites to display incorrectly. If this happens, disable Adblock and reload the page.

The correct display of the site indicates that you have a bad filter installed. In this case, call the context menu with the right mouse button and click "Report a problem on this page", type - "Adblock blocks too much."

To avoid such problems, you need to initially install this add-on correctly. Let's find out how to do it.

After you install Adblock and Adblock Plus to block ads in your browser, it will become more convenient for you to work and memory will not be wasted on downloading viral banners and advertisements.

As the saying goes, "advertising is the engine of commerce." However, due to the fact that there are no clear mechanisms for regulating advertising content on the Internet, it sometimes turns into an intrusive “network element”. Advertising messages can occupy up to 50% of the page area and be displayed as animated banners, static modules, flash videos, etc. Special browser extensions have been developed to enable users to get rid of unwanted advertising content. One of these effective "helpers" is Adblock Plus.

What is Adblock Plus

Adblock Plus (or ABP for short) is a special extension (plug-in) for Internet browsers, equipped with multifunctional tools to protect not only your Internet connection, but also your computer as a whole. The main and initial function of Adblock Plus is to block unwanted banner ads on the pages of the sites you visit.

In addition, Adblock Plus is able to offer users a number of equally useful features:

There are two ways to download and install the Adblock extension for Yandex.Browser. Method one:

1. Go to the official website of the plugin developer and click on the "Install for Yandex.Browser" button (the button will be located immediately on the main page).

   You will be prompted to install Adblock for the browser through which you entered the developer's page

2. After that, you will be redirected to the Chrome Web Store page, where you need to click on the "Install" button.

   The plugin is free

3. Confirm the installation of the extension by selecting the appropriate item in the notification window that appears.

   Before installation, you can see the information about the version and date of the last update of the extension in the additional information block

4. After that, the Adblock Plus plugin will be automatically installed on your computer and will be available through Yandex.Browser.

   After installing the extension, the corresponding icon will appear on the Yandex.Browser auxiliary panel

There is a second, alternative way to install this plugin:

1. Launch "Yandex.Browser", open its settings panel and select "Add-ons".

   The "Add-ons" window in "Yandex Browser" can only be opened through the menu, there is no hotkey combination

2. Scroll to the bottom of the list and click on the "Directory of extensions for Yandex.Browser" button.

   All custom extensions will be located in the category "From other sources"

3. Type Adblock in the search bar and select All results from the list that appears.

   You can also press the Enter key to display all found values.

4. In the list provided, find Adblock Plus and click on its icon with the left mouse button.

   Due to the fact that Adblock developers actively cooperate with Google Chrome, in the future it will be possible to download and install the extension only through the Chrome Web Store

5. In the extension profile that opens, click on the "Add to Yandex.Browser" button and wait for the plugin installation process to complete.

   By expanding the "Permissions" tab, you can also see what data of your browser Adblock will have access to

How to set up Adblock Plus

Unlike many other similar utilities, Adblock Plus allows users to customize key functionality of the extension themselves. In order to exercise this right, you must:

1. Go back to "Add-ons" options. Find the Adblock Plus extension and click on the "Settings" button. After that, the settings panel will open, which includes four sub-items:
   • "General". Here you can configure the privacy of your stay on the sites (the “privacy and security” block), the visibility of “permissible” ads, the language (the parameter is responsible for blocking ads in some specific languages), and also enable / disable the “anti-bypass” function (allows block "cunning" ads that use special tools to bypass all sorts of built-in filters of well-known blockers);

     The setting of the "Language" parameter depends on which sites you visit (Russian-language, English-language, etc.)

   • "White List of Sites". It is a built-in filter with which you can add certain sites to the exclusion list (advertising banners on these sites will always be displayed). You can remove a previously whitelisted site at any time.;

     In order to add the desired site to the list of exclusions, just enter its full address in the appropriate line and click on the "Add site" button

   • "Extended". This is an advanced tool for advanced users familiar with the Javascript programming language. With its help, you can create certain "narrow-profile" filters for displaying banner ads on websites (for example, hide only animated *.gif banners or only embedded contextual advertising, etc.);

     By default, Adoblock already has several built-in basic filters.

   • "Reference". Responsible for feedback to extension developers.

     Adblock developers offer users several ways of feedback at once

Adblock Plus performance test

In order to make sure that Adblock Plus works, let's conduct a small visual test. Let's go to several sites of different subjects, first with the extension disabled, and then with it enabled. Examples:

• sports resource. Adblock managed to block a huge number of banner ads (according to the presented statistics - 27 units) on one of the most popular Russian sports websites - championat.com;

  Adblock can even block background ads

• "Yandex.Music". Abdlock is also able to block banner ads pointwise;

  Adblock leaves a built-in active widget "Hide Ads" on the site, when clicked, nothing happens

• game resource stopgame.ru. The blocker turned out to be a very effective way to deal with hidden video ads, equipped with a built-in autorun;

  When loading a Fox News site with Adblock enabled, a message pops up asking you to disable this extension

How to disable Adblock if necessary

You can temporarily deactivate Adblock with just a couple of mouse clicks:

Alternative ad blockers for Yandex.Browser

In addition to Adblock Plus, there are many other ad blockers, just enter the keyword Block in the search bar of the extension directory.

These blockers are quite diverse:

After conducting several performance tests of a number of the above extensions for Yandex.Browser, I can say that the main disadvantage of almost all universal complex blockers is the lack of any possibility to customize their work (unlike the same Adblock Plus). Because of this, none of them showed 100% reliability in blocking ads. For example, Rule AdBlocker periodically fails to block gif banners, and Stop Reclame does not always cope with flash ads. The most stable extensions were AdBlocker Lite, AdBlocker Ultimate and Adguard. Moreover, to achieve maximum efficiency, I can advise you to use several extensions at the same time - install one complex blocker and a number of narrow-profile extensions created for specific services or sites.

Adblock Plus for Yandex.Browser is an indispensable assistant in the fight against intrusive advertising content. Thanks to a flexible and diverse functional toolkit, its work can be customized for every taste and for completely different tasks. And if you also have some knowledge of the Javascript programming language, Adblock can turn into a non-alternative ad blocker.
