AdBrick 1.0 Pre-Release Build 34

3.3 out of 5 stars 3.3 (13 votes)

BETA (September 1, 2008)

Windows XP / Freeware / 956 downloads

AdBrick is a lightweight and fast ad blocker for Internet Explorer. Unlike other ad blockers for IE it does not rely on proxies or simply hide ads after they're downloaded. It prevents ads from being downloaded at all based on their URL. The interface is much like Adblock for Firefox and is extremely easy to use.

  • Latest Changes

    - Note: Yes, the build number is lower than the previous release. That version must be uninstalled before installing this one, and should no longer be used

    - AdBrick no longer uses a custom filter format, at least in this version. It can import Adblock filters, so that format should be used when transferring filters from previous releases

    - Prefixes are no longer used on blocking filters. The "@" prefix is used for whitelist filters and everything else is considered blocking. Regular expression filters should be in the form "/regex/", and can be used as whitelist filters ("@/regex/"). Regula

    - Wildcard filters do not support anchors. Instead, there are implicit anchors at the beginning and end of every filter. This means in order to match anything with "ad" in it at any position, use the filter "*ad*". "ad*" matches at the start; "*ad" matches

    free and a step in the right direction.. it lacks an element selector like AdBlockPlus for firefox.

    I hope to be able to give 5 stars soon ;)

    Pretty cool, Adblock Plus for Firefox is basically the only thing that keeps me using Firefox... Might be time to switch O_o

    Seems to work ok.

    I guess Danny Carlton is going to have to start blocking Internet Explorer from his website too.
