Being guided by the criteria listed above, I made bold to declare the absolute winner of the analysis. As you may already guess, it is AdsCleaner. To be furnished with proof and to ground my choice, I decided to provide a detailed description of all its major features.
In short: this is the only tool with multilanguage support, including Russian. As far as the design is concerned, AdsCleaner found the golden mean between the convenient functionality and attractive appearance.
Ads Blocking
For sure, this application provides a complete set of features for cutting out banners that can be found in previously discussed applications. Namely, AdsCleaner allows blocking the advertising by a black list of addresses. And the size of this default list is impressive. Besides, the list can be automatically updated from the developer’s site. Unlike other described applications, the black list is not hidden, but is available both for reading and editing. Regardless of the fact that there is no physical division into system and user lists, the system and user addresses can be separately viewed. Such a structure of the list is more convenient, particularly when the application allows creating plenty of such lists (each for a certain occasion) and moreover, importing and exporting them. The possibility to maintain a white list is also available, which enables users to list the addresses beyond the blocking rules.
Besides, AdsCleaner blocks the banners not only of standard sizes (468?60, 88?31, etc.), but also any others defined by user. At that, the developers put some default data into the list of forbidden sizes, which eases the commencement of blocker’s operation. In contrast, developers of FilterGate and AdMuncher decided to create a list of forbidden sizes and thus deprived us of the right to add the required sizes ourselves. As a result, AdsCleaner turns out to provide the functional combination of these two blockers. Moreover, it offers another handy feature – the approximation of image size, which is very reasonable, since sizes may differ by a few pixels. So we don’t need to set such sizes as 10x10,11x10,12x10,10x11,10x12,11x11,11x12,12x11,12x12, but limit ourselves to such values as 11x11 allowing an inaccuracy of 1. Besides, AdsCleaner furnishes the option for blocking images from other websites.
Another feature I appreciated was the statistics for blocked banners. It is implemented in the form of a list containing the address of the blocked image, the time and the reason for blocking (i.e. by size, list, etc.). In addition, it provides the full name of the page that contained the banner, as well as the page it referred to. This list can also be exported from the application. But the most pleasant surprise regarding the statistics was the calculation of the actual (not averaged) traffic saved by the blocker. Surely, AdsCleaner could hardly become the leader without the possibility to clean and recompile pages. Fortunately, it perfectly meets this challenge. The application can either cut out a banner and squeeze the space it occupied or substitute it with an empty frame. In the first case the page integrity is preserved, while squeezing is recommended, if a page is overloaded with graphical elements and extends to more than one screen.
We get accustomed very quickly to the surrounding. Spending much time in the Internet, one can with certainty affirm: we live in the world of advertising. However, it’s quite hard to get used to it. The point is that the advertising is aimed to attract attention. Being guided by this principle, ads makers invent progressively newer and newer kinds of irritants to make the audience react. Thus, when opening a required Web-site, our attention is focused not on the things we have searched for, but on all sorts of banners and pop-up windows. no pop up window.

The first thing that caught my eye at launching the application was its clumsy design and awkward interface. Numerous tabs, unnecessary pictures and explanation notes contrasted with the set of options far from being smart. No doubt the features are quite easy to master– considering that the tawdry hints and icons actually provide some information. However, the functions are not enough. As for pop-up blocking, it is perfectly in order. There are even a black list and a white list for the windows headers. But the banners are what AdsGone cannot duly cope with. It is impossible to add unwanted sites to the list of addresses, as well as to disable Flash advertising. One can’t even plainly track spy software (though such a feature is declared) due to the same inability to update the list of hostile applications. The last straw laid by AdsGone to break the camel’s back was an absurd bug in the design. It was revealed when trying to maximize the main window (see screenshot).
