Somehow, fastclick has managed to open tabs even through adblock. Is there
a way to tell Firefox not to open any websites from a particular domain? Chak -- First say to yourself what you would be, then do what you have to do. -- Epictetus |

That will block the entire domain, and you won't have to download any extra S/W to do it. |

Try this.
Open Firefox >Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies, tick > for the originating web site only. Click on > Exceptions, make sure fastclick.com is blocked, if not, add to > Address of web site: & click > Block. Click on > View Cookies, tick > Don't allow sites that etc, any entries for fastclick, click > Remove Cookie. When done, keep clicking OK until Options is closed. |

So you can go to adblock options and turn on siteblocking/whitelisting, but i guess that would block a lot of other sites too. > Chak > |
