Parent article: Firefox 2.0 available

I have used that feature in both galeon and firefox since I found it the first time. It's a great anti-banner-ad tool and good for my privacy. Does anybody know why it is gone in FF2?

And I need to go into about:config to make animated images only spin once...

Did they take a bribe from doubleclik or what? :)

Now it seems I need to find out the current state of privoxy ...

try Adblock Plus or the original Adblock, both with the Filterset Updater. Very effective.
