The better the application, the harder it is to describe its functionality. AdMuncher offers a wide range of various options, most of which are meant solely for fine tuning of ads blocking. Considering the number of provided options, this application is likely to be the leader. However, most of its features are not employed by regular users and therefore they rather clutter up the inconvenient interface, which is already uninformative as it is. Even if in rare cases claimed by users, the actual benefit is not that big. For example, how often would you need to disable the option for changing the color of the scrollbar in the browser window? I assume, not that often. Besides, by changing the color, website developers create the general appearance of the page, and disabling it affects the thought-out design. But it is not only this option that matters… The consideration of similar unnecessary features can be omitted completely. Instead, let’s turn to the description of really important functions of the software.
Certainly, it contains quite a comprehensive black list of advertising addresses. The application fearlessly copes with blocking the banners from the list, but for one only thing, which appears to be a common drawback for all blockers considered: it is impossible to edit the internal black list. However, it does allow adding new addresses and automated updating. And despite missing functionality for editing, the list can still be looked through. AdMuncher processes banners again and again with great pleasure, sorting them by size. Unfortunately, like the previous blocker, it turned out to be too selective when picking out suitable sizes, and there is no opportunity to influence its choice. In other words, the application provides no options for setting additional sizes for ads cutting. An appreciable advantage of the application is its potential for sewing pages anew, without banners and empty patches. Users are free to choose the way of displaying pages: either with or without empty spaces in place of ads. I did not notice any serious problems with pop-up blocking – quite a good variety of settings is provided.
Having rambled in the application menus for some time, I found the statistics of the blocked ads, which turned out to be rather poor: it contained the number of blocked units without any further description. A pleasant discovery was that the developers hit upon the idea to count the traffic saved by the application. To my regret, the first impression was spoiled by the fact that the saved traffic was counted by multiplying the number of blocked units by 8. In other words, the developers assumed that each banner or a pop-up window makes up 8 KB. For sure, such information cannot be treated as reliable.
Resume: Pop-up windows – 5, banners – 4 design – 3, additional functions – 3
A very good one, but for its design and some serious disappointing inaccuracies, it could claim to be the leader. Advantages: thorough tuning of ads blocking functions.
Long ago the Internet ceased to be just a database providing billions of various resources. It has rather turned into a virtual business center. Heaps of advertising and spam, gigabytes of direct mailing lists, banners and slogans: a straightforward appeal to make a fortune. That is where the money is made. However, for most users of the World Wide Web the Internet remains a universal source of information. As for advertising in the Web – this phenomenon is not simply widespread, but permanent. pop up prevention.
AdsCleaner and other programs:
AD Killer
Not going deep into the provided functions, this application may seem to be a good candidate to become an on-duty ads blocker. However, when comparing AD Killer with other applications it becomes obvious that this blocker provides quite a poor set of features: regular blocking of pop-up windows, deactivation of banners by addresses (including Flash ads), the possibility to compile the black and the white list of advertising addresses. Unfortunately, even these few functions do not work properly. As an advantage of this tool I would name an intuitive standard menu, which allows even a beginner to feel at ease, and the cleanup mechanism of various data in the Internet Explorer. It also gives the possibility to choose a security level for pop-ups blocking. But to my mind, this rather points to the fact that developers have failed to create a common universal blocking algorithm.
AdsCleaner ( pop up prevention )
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.
