I found quite interesting article about: “How to Block Ads in Google Chrome” and would like to share it with you all. I think Google’s Chrome browser has a very fast rendering speed, nice privacy mode called incognito and clean/simple UI, but the only thing that keeps me going back to Firefox is the Adblock Plus addon. So if you love Chrome and would like to block ads with it, then Privoxy is the tool for you!
Here is a small guide how to do it:
- Download and install Privoxy.
- Click on the Wrench icon in Chrome in the upper right corner.
- Choose options>Under The Hood>Change proxy settings.
- In the Internet Properties dialog’s Connections tab, click on the LAN settings button.
- Check off “Proxy settings” and in the address setting add 127.0.0.1 and in the port 8118.
- If you have the option, you can also check off “Bypass proxy for local settings”.
- Click “OK,” close Chrome and restart it.
