Adblock Plus for Chrome is the ultimate app for Chrome users who hate seeing ads on their computer screen. Every time that you use Chrome as your primary browser and search the web, Google keeps track of every page you visit. It then uses that information to customize the ads that you see. If you do a search for a new superhero movie, all the ads you see later will relate to comic books, movies and similar products for sale. Anytime you view an ad, click on an ad or buy something from that ad, you put money into another person's pocket. With Adblock Plus for Chrome, you can now enjoy a better online experience.

Online ads are a pain in the you know what. Those ads flash on your screen and distract you from the content you want to see. Some will even get in your way, which results in accidental clicks that load a brand new page and take you away from the page you want to see. Adblock Plus for Chrome lets you explore the web, view your favorite sites and check out new pages without worrying about annoying ads getting in the way.

One of its best features is that it lets you customize the way it works. You can actually decide to block ads on specific sites and view ads on others. Viewing ads on independent sites is a great way to support your favorite pages. You can use it as-is immediately after downloading it, or you can customize the filters based on your own needs.

Another problem that Adblock Plus for Chrome helps prevent is the spread of spyware and malware. Both are essentially viruses that can infect your computer and steal your confidential data. Clicking on a link that you don't recognize is one of the more common ways of downloading spyware and malware. With multiple ads jumping around on your computer screen though, you might accidentally click the wrong button and download those harmful elements. With Adblock Plus for Chrome, you will never again see one of those pesky ads, which reduces the risk that you might wind up with spyware on your computer. Download the program today to see how much it can help you.

Pros:

  • Customize the program to see the content you want to see
  • Use the software right away or with custom filters that you create
  • Keep dangerous ads from popping up
  • Reduce the risk of downloading spyware or malware

Cons:

  • Occasionally blocks too much content
  • May take some time to learn how to use the custom features
