Adblock is a content-blocking module for the Mozilla and Firefox browsers. It is both more robust and more precise than the built-in image blocker.

Once installed it's a snap to filter elements at their source-address. Just right-click: Adblock: done. Filters use either the wildcard character (*) or full Regular Expression syntax. A list pane shows at-a-glance what has or hasn't been blocked. Scripts, backgrounds, even Flash - anything can be caught. Plugin-media sport floating tabs for one-click filtering. A special shortcut quick-hides any element on the page. And, if an ethical urge should overwhelm, just tap the keys and Adblock toggles off -- it's that easy.

Compatible with versions from 0.7+

It appears the new Treo 650 has a problem with the filesystem that causes many files to swell in size. Although I don't think the problem is as bad as the Slashdot post makes it sound, it is disappointing to hear of such an obvious problem making it into the wild.

Sounds like a case of trying to make it to market in time for Christmas. One more reason for me to hunker down with my Treo 600 and wait for the next generation...
