I use it on Chrome, just install it and it stops all the ads on FB, YT, etc.

Yep I always use an ad blocker since the late 90s. When I am stuck using a computer without adblock it makes me cringe. I was surprised to learn YouTube even had ads :)

For Chrome I recommend AdGuard. I find it even better than my old favorite which was AdBlock Plus.

YouTube ads are really annoying! Sometimes they can be skipped, but the worst is when they pop up mid-video. Very annoying if I'm listening to a "full album" in music. I keep refreshing the page like a dozen times sometimes. Since I'm on Internet Explorer, which one should I get?

On IE there is AdBlock Plus. I don't use IE very often but it did work.

Downloaded AdBlock plus and it works WONDER. No more pesky YouTube ads or on Facebook for that matter. Really clear up webpages if you know what I mean. Should have done it before.

I just switched, thanks for the info Brandon, it works much more smoothly with Chrome than Ad Block. :D
