AdBlocker Lite

Block ads seamlessly on popular websites.

AdBlocker Lite - Efficient Ads Removal Chrome Extension

AdBlocker Lite is an efficient browser add-on that enables you to block annoying ads on popular websites. By running on pure CSS in lite mode, it ensures minimal memory and CPU use, ideal for slow machines. It offers two modes - lite and full for varied ad-blocking requirements. Even more, it allows custom ad-blocking rules defined by CSS-selectors, giving you more power and control. Despite being a lightweight ad-blocker, it offers relevant features like an ON/OFF button and Highlight/Block modes.

Not work on youtube. Block some iframes.

Only ad blocking extension that allowed a video correctly on a newspaper site. I have it set on FULL, which is really fast, and activate the LITE mode if an non-ad element is missing from a page. When on LITE, it is actually slower, and some ads may be flashing on and off a couple of times, before AdBlocker Lite decides what to do with them. Nevertheless, the LITE mode is more correct in some cases. All in all a nice combinations of tools. The capability to block a specific element and a fuller list of options is missing, but its ease of use and speed shine. Well done!
