Facebook Ads

Is there a way to disable those annoying ads that pop up on the right side of your facebook page. I'm really sick of looking at some of those ads - I find some of them disturbing.

Nope - its just a part of being on Facebook. Normally they are related to whatever your latest search has been....

YES!! Install AdBlocker Plus. I don't have Ads on anything including Facebook. It's great.

If you find out what Ellen's secret/big lie is, let me know.

Not sure, I just ignore them. They are why FB is free.

Yep. If you use Google Chrome, just enable the Ad Blocker.

Yes! I use Adblock Edge, Adblock Plus, and Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon. Works beautifully!

I enlarge my characters/screen and the ads move over to right side. I am not distracted by them.

I don't want to know and I don't want to look at her and her partner kissing either.

You're welcome!! The only drawback is that, if you want to watch a video clip that starts with an advertisement, it will block the video. Outside of that, it's great!!
