Grrrrrrrrrr! 80% through uploading a vid to youtube and accidently clicked on an advert. Now I mean to make sure it never happens again! With the bonus of getting rid of all the sht on here too.
Anyone recommend an ad blocker? I'm on Vista and IE and don't really want to go to Mozilla.

    You can add the addresses of popular ad 'providers' (doubleclick.net etc.) to your hosts file.

    I presume there's _something_ built into IE7 that can be made to block adverts. If it's just Mozilla/FF you don't like, Opera's got a content blocker built into it.
