Ad Killer Firefox

Ad Killer

Ad Killer is the cross platform extension to block banner ads in websites like YouTube, ESPN, MSN and many more.

Features & Capabilities

Ad Killer is an open-source Chrome extension designed to block annoying banner ads on popular websites like YouTube, ESPN, MSN, and Independent. It works seamlessly across platforms by running quietly in the background, helping you enjoy a cleaner, distraction-free browsing experience.

The extension is currently in beta and supports toggling ad blocking on or off with ease. It occasionally requires refreshing the page (F5) to recognize newly loaded or scroll-down ads. While some ads may still appear due to site-specific implementations, Ad Killer continuously improves its detection capabilities. Your privacy is respected since the extension only scans website data to detect banners and does not use your data otherwise.

Ideal for users seeking a lightweight and effective ad blocker specifically targeting banner ads, Ad Killer invites feedback and support for ongoing development.

Is Ad Killer Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Ad Killer requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

  • High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Ad Killer has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
