Like all of you, we enjoy great software. Because we encounter lots of software on our quest to the Perfect Desktop(tm) and the Perfect Webbrowsing Experience(tm), we would like to share some gems with you.

Mozilla Firefox plugins

Mozilla Firefox and it's great [and Outlook Express virus free] Thunderbird can be found on the Mozilla website.

AdBlock extension

Adblock is a content filtering plug-in for the Mozilla and Firebird browsers. It is both more robust and more precise than the built-in image blocker.

Adblock allows the user to specify filters, which remove unwanted content based on the source-address. If this sounds complicated, don't worry: it's not.

Just add a few filters. Every time a webpage loads, Adblock will intercept and disable the elements matching your filters. See?- nothing to it.
