I use the Ghostery addon on my laptop and it works great. On my tablet it doesn't work at all. Is it possible to simply use extensions in Firefox on my tablet? For some reason I installed the separate Ghostery app on the tablet, and it doesn't work. Will it work as an addon - does that work in Firefox on Android? The ads when streaming movies is so annoying. Please tell me how to block on tablet/Firefox.

Hello Can you please help me find an adblocker for old Firefox 78.15.0esr. I have looked everywhere.

I have to stay on an old OSX (Mac 10.11) and use Firefox 78.15.0esr (for various reasons I cannot upgrade). I had an adblocker that worked brilliantly, but a few weeks ago it was removed (not by me), so the Ads came back!

Recent attempts to download ad blocker as before were not successful. ?incompatibility I think.

Many many thanks Jane

I use Google for my search engine when using Firefox web browser. I've recently been getting a long list of ads / notifications in Google when I activate Google from Firefox. It does not interfere with the functioning of Google but I have no idea how this situation occurred. I am concerned about privacy and security. This does not happen when I use Chrome as my browser. I can access Google when I use Chrome as my search engine with no useless ads or notifications appearing in Google. Thank you Ken

Hi there I've been using Netscape navigator, then Firefox forever. I also use Thunderbird and have made donations for these products.

Very upset to see that cookie ought to delete and all the adblock add-ons have been discontinued or deleted from my browser. You say because it's a security problem but I've been using these for 10 plus years without any problems.

As long as advertisements show up on my browser I will have to now switch after 20 plus years to Brave.

Some sites I use will not let me use them unless I stop using add blocking. I have not installed an add blocker so I am thinking it must be one in Firefox. Assuming this is true, how can I discontinue the add blocker at a specific site so I can access/read/use its contents. Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide. Ken

I just started getting an annoying ding/small pop-up window that appears to be a link to various ads . . . I would like to get rid of it.

I assume it is FIrefox, as it started happening after my most recent update. I also assume there is a setting I can use, but I don't see a settings icon in Firefox. <Sigh>

Possibly it only pops up when I'm using Duck Duck Go, but I'm not sure about that.

Sure need some help here . . . much appreciated.

I used to have Adblock installedl then lost it. I've just reinstalled it, but it doesn't seem to be working. What have I done wrong? Is there another system that Firefox recommends? Thank you.
