get some good filters from

http://www.streamload.com/jp10558/public in the proxyX-XX-XXXX.zip file, where the X's are the date it was last updated.

The JD list filters are superb.

Although this is essentially add/pop-up blocker it does much more than that.You can change the way a page looks with it.

These days pop-up blockers r integrated with browsers.but many people use it for more different and advanced purposes.

OR

You could just enhance your browsing experience and get Firefox.

^o

I use Opera as i find it better.But the point is no other soft (ff doesnt even come close) allows you to controll your browsing like this one does.

**Safin** · 17-01-05, 05:23 PM

agree there.

I agree ff is cool in many ways but opera is certainly the best even now as far as cache management goes. A simple test is that on very slow connection, if you try to open a site, its usually opera that opens it rather than ff. Opera has got a speed advantage and combine that with grt password mnager and M@,is certainly among the best out there.

Its actually just wonderful with opera, A super way to stop advertising,grt work Indyan

Too bad it ain't fully compatible wid Gmail.

**Apex** · 17-03-05, 09:04 PM

Yep, the latest version of Opera i.e, v8 is compatible with GMail.

besides, GMail will come out with an HTML version of webmail

so that all browsers will be able to access it

HONESTLY, U don't know????????????????????????????????

I agree the default installation takes so much screen space, but once u turn off /remove all unwanted, it's just wonderfull. It also adjusts the webpage inside the display area, so that u never hve to use the horizontal scroll bar again.

Use the ver 8 beta. There's nothing wrong with it.

BTw, wanna see a opera screenshot. here u go. see how lean it is

**saumilsingh** · 19-03-05, 02:13 AM

Opera is the leanest, once you're done with it.

This is my setup, the menu bar (file, edit, view, etc.) is disabled as well since it's not needed much (enabled in the shot by mistake).

**Indyan** · 20-03-05, 11:40 AM

I am a huge Opera fan.
