by Firefox user 13658430, a month agoGreat extension! But every day, it goes against its own mission of preventing ads by creating its own advert. Without notice it opens own page without permission scrounging for more donations. It's very annoying & disruptive. You are ruining your own great brand because of your incessant greed. If it continues I will remove it from all browsers and devices. Thanks again for the period of time when you were great when you were doing what you set out to do.
UPDATE: I have had a couple of nonsense emails from them (standard cover email) not by I person! People need to be aware of these facts, The company started out as "AdBlock" at the time I donated to the cause around once a year, then there was an update "AdBlock Plus" accepting that there is costs to make improvements I made a donation! Now it's "AdBlock Premium" and a constant bombardment of everyday nagging screens. Whats next after AdBlock Premium? "AdBlock Super Blocker"? AdBlock Fantastic? "AdBlock Exterminator"? I have now decided to remove AdBlock from my browsers - They say that they are sorry to see me go! Really!!!

posted a month agoHi,
We are updating the extension, therefore a popup might appear (it will only happen once per browser/device), but you can simply close it and continue browsing. If you are seeing many payment tabs all at once or encountering the payment page every time you open your browser, please reach out to us via support@adblockplus.org.
Here's more about how our contribution page works: For non-Premium users, we populate the page when we update the extension to keep you informed on changes we've made and as a reminder to support Adblock Plus if you find the software beneficial. We don't track who has previously paid unless your extension is already upgraded to Adblock Plus Premium (and in that case we won't show you the update page at all). The contribution page also displays just after installing ABP so it sometimes appears even though you have recently contributed or have paid for Premium.

- Rated 2 out of 5by patped, 10 days agoIt's not working anymore on youtube. I use firefox. It used to work just fine but in the last few days whenever I try to watch a video on youtube the ad starts and by the end of the ad it freezes before beginning the second ad. I click play and by the end of the second ad it freezes again before the actual video begins. I noticed the icon somehow turns gray in a few videos as if youtube disconnected it but in most videos the icon is normal and even then the ads play as if I didn't have the extension. Also, when the video finally begins, the console with the buttons (play, sound, full screen etc) takes about 10 seconds to show up.
