How to block sites with Firefox?

[Elektro Slime]

hi guys i use FF 1.04 and was wondering how can i set it to block certain directories on a site, for example i wanna block the banner ads in the anandtech site, i know they are in http://images.anandtech.com/banners but when i select the 'Block images from' option it blocks all the images from Anandtech! i only want to block the banners and flash ads coz it can be really painful on my dial up connection. Any suggestions?

+ Reps to any1 who helps

-Thanx

Doesn't Firefox have an ad extention or something?

You can use the Adblock extension.

BTW when i tried giving u rep, i got the following message:

"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to muzikool again."

Ill try again later......

To solve that Electro, go ahead and give someone else rep (like me)

Here is a good place to get a filter list file for the AdBlock extention that blocks most adds.
