This is especially true for networking, with all the attributes due to it in the form of various advertising banners, suddenly opening advertising pages, viral adware applications, phishing and other similar things.

Nevertheless, Yandex took such a step, and since people use it, the problem of advertising, as always, remains relevant.

Using the Adblock add-on

If you want to use this add-on, then I recommend disabling the “Flash Banner and Video Blocker” add-on, which was written about above.

To fully familiarize yourself with Adblock and how to install it on the Yandex browser, go to the article:. Especially, so that there would not be a lot of scribbling, I singled out the full article for all browsers.

Using the Adguard add-on to block pop-ups, banners and all sorts of annoying elements

So we got to the third way, how to remove ads in Yandex browser. On the Internet about this add-on, you can find a lot of interesting things. You can download as an add-on or install the whole program. According to this method, namely how, I wrote a whole voluminous article. Which I recommend to watch and get acquainted

Since the Internet has firmly entered our lives, advertising has also entered the Internet. Advertising is the engine of sales, trade, so there is a lot of it and it is diverse. Since there are a lot of annoying, viral ads, you have to look for ways to deal with it. And today we have considered and understood such methods how to remove ads in Yandex browser.

Below is a list of the best free ad blockers. But none of them is perfect, so it is most effective to use several solutions at once.

Advertising types

When choosing the best blockers, we adhered to the following criteria:

• Completely free;
• Good user ratings;
• No need to register an account to use;
• Recently updated (last 12 months);
• Implementation as a plug-in for at least one browser or operating system;
• Blocks "display ads" (pop-ups, banners, videos, static images, wallpapers, text ads);
• Blocks ads in videos (for example, on YouTube).

To test the blockers, we used several sites with different types of ads. Among them: Forbes.com, Fark.com, YouTube and OrlandoSentinel.com.
On the Orlando Sentinel, we found aggressive ad formats that most ad blockers can't block. In fact, only a handful of them have effectively blocked all of the ads shown on the Orlando Sentinel.

We have reviewed each of these free tools based on the specified criteria and rated them. In addition, the adblockers listed below, with the exception of Stend Fair Adblocker, are open source software.

Best Adblockers - Browser Plugins and Apps

The best option for blocking ads is to install a specialized plugin or use a browser with a built-in blocker. They interact with websites much more accurately than standalone programs running on the computer in the background.

Stands Fair AdBlocker
It is only available for the Google Chrome browser. With this plugin, you can block all types of ads. But it is only available as an addon for the Google Chrome browser.
Stands Fair AdBlocker is not designed to block ads, although it can be used for that as well. The developer company believes in fair advertising and encourages users to whitelist ads displayed on websites.

Luckily, Stands does a great job of blocking all other ads. Including aggressive ad formats shown on the Orlando Sentinel. As well as display ads, auto-play videos, and YouTube ads.

Rating : 7/7

Main advantages: Block ads on Facebook and Google search.

Works with: Google Chrome

AdBuard AdBlock
AdGuard AdBlock was able to block all types of ads. But the biggest downside of this ad blocker is that all features are only available in the premium version. At the same time, the difference between blocker versions is explained only in the reference documentation.

Many users have positively evaluated AdBuard AdBlock. It has been downloaded over 4 million times and has received high ratings.
When we tested it, it turned out to be one of the adblockers that not only effectively blocked ads shown on the Orlando Sentinel site, but also did not skip ad frames with the word “advertisement”.

Rating : 7/7

Main advantages: Ability to convert whitelist to blacklist.

Works with: Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, Microsoft Edge, Yandex.Browser.

Opera Browser
One of the fastest and most productive browsers. He was one of the first to offer his users a built-in adblocker.

Once you turn on the adblocker in the settings, it will block almost every ad you come across. But the browser was unable to block interstitial ads on the Forbes site (blocks of quotes that appear before articles). Most of the other ad units were blocked.
In addition, the Opera adblocker successfully blocked advertisements shown on the Orlando Sentinel.

Rating : 7/7

Main advantages: built into the popular browser, simple work with a white list.

Works: with Opera.

Adblock Plus
Is the most popular software to block ads with over 10 million downloads on Google Chrome browser alone. This is a free and open source project. Adblock Plus is the basis for many other free blockers.

By default, Adblock Plus is designed to block only those advertisements that are considered intrusive or potentially harmful. Therefore, it requires additional configuration.
If you want to block most ads (including auto-playing videos), you need to turn off the "Allow some non-intrusive ads" option in the settings. Even so, ABP doesn't block everything.

Adblock Plus was one of the tools that failed to do anything about the ads shown on the Orlando Sentinel. Unfortunately, even the "block elements" function could not help. ABP is good and popular, but far from perfect.

Rating : 6.5 / 7

Main advantages: Presence of an anti-blocking filter.

Works with: Google Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari, Yandex.Browser, iOS, Android.

uBlock AdBlocker Plus
Unlike other tools, uBlock AdBlocker Plus is easy to use. However, there are some things that the developer could improve. For example, a blocker site is just a page with the name of the plugin and no additional information.

Block AdBlocker Plus effectively blocks most ads but still lets some through. For example, it did not block ads from automatically playing on one of the sites.

When some ads loaded, I used the "element block" feature to block specific ads on the web page. For example, on the Orlando Sentinel, element blocking worked great. And its use did not lead to a page reload (as was the case with other adblockers).

Rating : 6.5 / 7

Main advantages A: easy to use, the ability to block elements.

Works with: Google Chrome.

uBlock Plus Adblocker
The biggest drawback of this plugin is that it has an awkward interface. There are several settings that are activated using switches. But most of the work is related to digging in the parameters. However, uBlock Plus Adblocker effectively blocked all advertisements, including autoplay videos.

The main advantage of the plugin is the presence of a large library of third-party filters. The tool also includes advanced custom settings that allow you to create your own content filters.
During testing, uBlock Plus Adblocker blocked most of the ads. But I couldn't do anything about the banner ads that were shown on the Orlando Sentinel.

Rating : 6.5 / 7

Main advantages: Filters items and unsafe ads.

Works with: Google Chrome.

AdBlocker Genesis Plus
If you have used uBlock Origin or AdBlock Plus, this plugin is for you. AdBlocker Genesis Plus is a fork of other popular plugins. It uses the same basic source code but implements many of its own features.

Its user interface is slightly different, but the ad blocking functionality is the same. The plugin developer claims to have specifically removed the tracking code from the uBlock/AdBlock Plus source code to provide more privacy.

This ad blocker has a high rating (4.34 out of 5) based on over 100,000 ratings. But I found that Genesis Plus does not block all ads. On one site, this plugin blocked simple display ads (Fark.com), but failed to block a display ad on the Orlando Sentinel.

Rating : 6/7

Main advantages: no tracking code, simple whitelist button, block items button.

Works with: Google Chrome.

Adblock Ultimate
Open source project. The tool allows you to deal with most advertisements. In testing, it was able to block YouTube ads and most display ads on websites. This ad blocker has a high rating of 4.84 out of 5 from Google Chrome users and over 600,000 installs.

The plugin was unable to handle the ads shown on the Orlando Sentinel. It did not block ads broadcast on this site at all. But for those who only need to cut off most of the ads, this is a good option. Unfortunately, the plugin has not been updated for over a year. Because of this, his rating was lowered.

Rating : 6/7

Main advantages: Fast "item blocking" feature to block any ads instantly.

Works with: Google Chrome.

NoScript

This tool is only suitable for Firefox and is more of a script blocker than an ad blocker. NoScript prevents all types of scripts from loading on web pages: JavaScript, Java, Flash, and more. You can allow certain types of scripts to be loaded. But by default, the tool applies a fairly “hard” filter.

As a result of its work, most display ads are blocked. Including aggressive advertising on the Orlando Sentinel, which other tools could not cope with. But NoScript doesn't block ads in videos at all.

Rating : 5.5 / 7

Main advantages: Complete blocking of scripts.

Works with: Firefox.

Why are Privacy Badger and Ghostery missing from this list?

You may have heard of the popular Privacy Badger and Ghostery adblockers. The fact is that these plugins are not designed to block ads, but to opt out of ads and other site elements that violate user privacy. As a result, they both block certain types of advertisements. But first of all, the tools are aimed at protecting privacy.

"Cry of the soul" called "Stop Advertising" is familiar to every user, and not by hearsay. Each of them "pulled out" from themselves, contemplating huge flickering banners, ads on web pages. This article is about additional anti-advertising for Yandex.Browser. If you don't know anything about anti-banner addons, hurry up to get acquainted with them. They can perfectly complement the browser's built-in protection (integrated blockers).

How to download and connect addons?

But before proceeding with the review of third-party ad blockers, let's figure out how to install them in the browser. This operation is performed like this:

1. Click the Menu button.

2. Click Add-on.

4. In the search line, enter the name of the blocker.

5. In the search results, click on the blocker bar.

6. On the page that opens, click "Add ...".

7. Wait for the download and installation of the program to complete.

8. Set up blocking and start surfing the web (no ads!).

Anti-banners

Consider the capabilities, features and settings of popular extensions that “save” ads in the browser.

In fact, in terms of functions, controls and some interface elements, it is a clone of the well-known cross-browser anti-banner Adblock.

It performs the following functions:

• disables ad blocks on pages;
• blocks scripts that track user behavior;
• speeds up page loading.

Additionally, Adblocker Ultimate supports a white list (selective filtering), subscription management. Displays statistics of blocked elements on the loaded page.

Provides the ability to create your own blocking rules.

Powerful anti-banner. But it is more focused on advanced users and specialists in the field of web technologies. It has advanced tools for blocking not only banners, but also other elements of a web page (frames, blocks, pictures, interactive objects).

Filters ads through the "Fanboy(Main)" rule base. It has a built-in editor for selecting markup elements. Neutralizes the given blocks, ads using CSS rules: correctly, without violating the structure of the site. Able to block scripts. It has the function of importing filters for Adblock Plus 1.1.

Filtering adjustment is performed directly in the addon panel.

Convenient, not resource-demanding addon. Contains a minimum of settings (only essential options). By default, it uses 4 filter bases:

• EasyList;
• ad server directory Peter Lowe;
• EasyPrivacy;
• viral domains.

The add-on panel has a button for quickly disabling it, as well as commands for filtering other elements of web pages (third-party fonts, images, large banners).

Specialized filters

Removes banners in a Gmail mailbox profile.

Facebook anti-banner. Saves the user from advertising intrigues on the pages of this popular social network. Also supported by the Opera browser.

Additional funds

You can also connect the NoScript Suite Lite script blocker in your browser. It completely or partially prevents the launch of "cumbersome" interactive elements, including advertising ones.

The customization panel contains a predefined white list of sites, which can be expanded if desired.

Viral advertising

If, when you start your PC, the browser itself opens with an advertising page, this is a sure sign that the system is infected with the Adware virus. In this case, anti-banners are powerless. To eliminate them, use specialized anti-virus software (AdwCleaner, Malwarebytes, Dr.Web CureIt!).

Arm yourself with blocking tools and enjoy the benefits of the Web without ads!
