Facebook Ads
So many are using Facebook these days. This can be a great way to communicate with others. However, the ads on the side margins often display inappropriate pictures or words, especially for young teens. To block these ads from appearing on your facebook follow the instructions below carefully. If you have mulitiple users on your computer you will need to do this for each user. You will also need to use Firefox for your browser instead of Explorer. Firefox is an excellent browser with many free plugins and programs that can be added to it. You can also download Firefox for free using the link below.

Here's how to block all Facebook ads. No more silly tatoo ads and get rich quick ripoff ads... This takes just 2 or 3 minutes to setup and yields hours of ad-less Facebook browsing bliss.
This only works with the FireFox browser - It's in wide use and works better than InternetExplorer.
If you need it, get FireFox here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/
Now assuming you have FireFox....
1. Install the FireFox addon by visiting: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865
-- Click: Add To Firefox
-- Click Install button
2. Restart Firefox, when Firefox reopens, you'll should see a new tab: Add Adblock Plus Filter subscription
-- I didn't check any of these boxes
3. Under the Tools menu within Firefox, select Adblock Plus Preferences.
4. Click the Add Filter button.
5. Copy and paste the following filters, one by one: Click OK after each filter, then repeat to bring up the AdBlock preferences again
facebook.com#*(social_ad)
facebook.com#*(social_ad_advert)
facebook.com#*(adcolumn_wrapper)
facebook.com#*(home_sponsor_nile)
facebook.com#*(banner_ad)
facebook.com#*(class=adcolumn)
facebook.com#*(sidebar_ads)
facebook.com#*(sponsors)
6. Close Firefox, then open it and go to Facebook. Adblock Plus should block all Facebook ads.
