No idea Bill, I've never used a plugin to block ads Laugh | :laugh: (I'm using IE Unsure | :~ ), I started searching for a solution to avoid seeing ads (for myself and for all the people in the company as I saw that most of the virus issues came from unwanted clicks on some "interesting" ads). As we don't have a policy about which browser we have to use I searched for a global option and I found MVPS which worked like charm in all the browsers that can be installed on the computer (of course)...

Probably you are right and an ad blocker will intercept more things as it can use different methods than only the hosts file approach.

and an ad too early for that here...
