Better ad blocking for Konqueror

Wed Aug 29, 2012 8:09 pm
Hello,

I configured Easylist in Konqueror. However, I still see ads in google search results and I see doubly underlined links that display flash ads when the mouse moves over - so called IntelliTXT ads. In Firefox, ABP blocks all of them. My ABP uses Easylist and Adversity. However, the latter isn't preconfigured and importing the list from ABP freezes Konqueror (I reported this on the Debian BTS).

How can I remove google and IntelliTXT ads?

Regards,
Boris

Unfortunately I suspect it may not be possible - unless you can find the specific Google / Intellitxt blocking rules and add just them. If you leave Konqueror for a while, does it eventually complete the import?

No, each time I tried it, Konqueror froze. Once my complete system froze and the problem persisted afer reboot.

Please file a bug report in regards to that behaviour - on bugs.kde.org.
