   Thank you very much for this! I am using this with Chromium and it is just OK!
   I have been looking for such a plugin forever. The only strange thing I have – the adblocker button in panel has no icon, looks like an empty button – not neat. But it is about nothing, the real deal is that it actually works (Using traditional morpeh list currently).

   With this on par with flashblock extension Chromium becomes my only choice.

   Where do I find the config file for the custom ads I’ve blocked? I mean, when I hit alt+b and select some part of the page, so It’ll be blocked, how can I find those configs to port ir somewhere else, like my netbook for example.

   Worked great. For people who don’t know how to use this:
   1. Click the empty area left of the page button (it reveals a secret button! jk)
   2. click Preferences
   3. Select “EasyList (USA):” (or wherever you live near)
   4. check “convert and use blocking rules” (IMPORTANT!!)
   5. In the ‘Global filters’ groupbox, click Save
   6. Scroll down and click “Close”
   7. BAM!! Ad’s are disabled based upon EasyList (USA)!!
   good luck!!

    Running 4.0.249.11 on windows 7. Extension appears to install, am able to select easy list subscription. Nothing gets blocked.

    The extension causes a problem on http://www.heise.de because some ad that is meant to be displayed on the right of the page is now displayed on top of the content. I had filed this as a chrome bug here:

    http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=29176

    Please see if you can fix it…

    is anyone having issues updating the USA easylist.txt? or any other list?

    I just cannot use the hotkeys like “Alt+B”, a click on the icon is working.

    I ran into a strange issue with this. There’s certain ads with audio, particularly on deviantART, that are visibly blocked but apparently still active. This hides the ads but the flash element is still there and I can hear it. :/

    i love this and it works but it makes takes forever for pages to start loading… 10 seconds extra wait for any/every page to load isn’t worth it.
21. antsu says:

    In my comment above, the key I was talking about was ENTER, but I wrote ENTER between those characters that are used to create HTML tags (I dont know the name : ) ), and they disapeared. So, while reading that, on the 1st, 9th and 11th line, read ENTER where it’s necessary.
    Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Hi it appears to stop working with the latest version of chrome: 4.0.249.25
23. Greg says:

    Not blocking ads for me. I installed it and it see the button for it at the top of Chrome (4.0.249.25 for Windows — running Windows 7). I subscribed to the USA list and just to make sure everything was good I closed Chrome and re-opened it. Nothing is being blocked. Am I missing something?

    Works in Fedora 12,chromium 4.0.253.0.And there is no icon on it.
    Why?
25. Johnathan Evans says:

    December 5, 2009 at 5:51 pm

    Please make it so the icon can disappear. I don’t need a faceless icon crowding that invaluable space.

    Hi, using Chromium 4.0.260.0 (33405) and while the button icon doesn’t show up I can access the menu. I’ve added the rules, but they don’t remove anything. Alt + B and Alt + W don’t work either.

    dude the icon of AdBlock+ is invisibile why? look: http://i45.tinypic.com/14cd17p.jpg Can you fix that?
30. Anon says:

    December 6, 2009 at 3:47 pm

    It would be nice if you could edit the options through the “options” panel under extensions.
    Also, is there a way to turn off the button? It seems a little unnecessary.

    Thanks a lot man.
    If not for this post I would have uninstalled this extension since the options button in the extension panel is grayed out.

    YOU NEED TO FIX THIS EXTENSIONS IT DON’T WORK. WHEN YOU CLEAR YOUR BROWSER HISTORY IT IT CLEARS THE SETTINGS AND YOU SUBSCRIPTION TO. YOU HAVE TO SET IT UP AGAIN. THEN IT STILL DON’T WORK.

    Google patched this for the newest google chrome developer build, not working anymore
34. Santos says:

    December 7, 2009 at 9:10 pm

    In the newer version of chrome the only way I was able to find a way to get this working was to press ALT+B and then clicking on the things I wanted to hide on a given site. This doesn’t work too well for page like Youtube who have dozens of ads placed in useful places, but it’s better than nothing.
35. Person says:

    December 7, 2009 at 9:55 pm

    Lol These retards don’t even know how to make extensions properly. Chrome will never be as good as Firefox, just deal with it.

39. Ressah says:

    December 8, 2009 at 11:13 am

    Just for those experiencing issues:
    Open the preferences
    Select the blank text box radio button
    Paste the following URL: http://adblockplus.mozdev.org/easylist/easylist.txt
    Make sure “convert and use blocking rules” is ticked and hit “Subscribe”

    This SHOULD populate global filters and if you close down chrome and reopen it then most ads should be gone

    Other than the annoying subscription problems it works fine once it’s configured.
40. Steve says:

    December 8, 2009 at 8:40 pm

    This is pretty damn broken.
    Adding blocking rules doesn’t really work. It will just block certain elements but there is no easy way to add new regexes, as in the REAL adblock plus.

    For me, entering something like http://adprovider.com/* causes the entire page to disappear.

    Stick with Firefox until this is usable.

43. JesusSuperstar says:

    December 9, 2009 at 8:51 pm

    Works great for me, using Chromium on Linux, current version is AdBlock+ – 1.1.9.10
    I just wanted to ask if this extension is on the official Google Extensions site (https://chrome.google.com/extensions/).
44. adtrace says:

    December 10, 2009 at 12:45 am

    Doesn’t work at all? Get the error message:

    Invalid value for ‘permissions[0]‘.

    Which makes no sense, since this is my person computer and I’m the sole user/administrator on it.

    subscription doesn’t work
    repaging doesn’t work
    adblocking hardly works
47. Dima says:

    December 10, 2009 at 7:39 am

    @Lex1 then put it to https://chrome.google.com/extensions/ this one is much better than other ad blockers for Google Chrome!
48. JesusSuperstar says:

    December 10, 2009 at 11:41 am

    Certainly much better than any other ad block extension I’ve seen for Chrome.
    I’ve been using it since I first installed chromium. Add it please

    @Ressah

    Thanks worked just like you said. Although i dislike how there is an empty space where some ads were before but better than nothing.
