  1. Re:too litlle too late by Helmholtz · · Score: 1 · on Firefox Working to Fix Memory Leaks

    I use the following:

    http://www.fanboy.co.nz/adblock/opera/urlfilter.ini

    with Opera. In many respects, I find it easier to deal with than adblock. I have a daily rsync cron job that updates the file, and that's all there is to it. As a firefox user for many years, the main reason I went to firefox was to escape the massive bloat that had become the mozilla (now seamonkey) application collection. Unfortunately, while firefox started out lean, it seems to have gradually grown larger and larger and larger.

    So far, I've been very happy with Opera, though if firefox (or some other browser) manages to become the next "lean and mean" web browser, I'll probably switch again.

    So set up a cronjob to fetch a block list. Is that so hard for an adphobe?

    Set up a cron script and you're set.
