Ads Killer is an extension available for Google Chrome, Orbitum, Yandex Browser (in development), Mozilla Firefox (in development), Opera (in development), Edge (in development). Its main goal is to remove all obstructive ads when browsing the web: remove video ads on YouTube, ads on Facebook, banners, all kinds of pop-up windows and different background advertising as well.
When downloading web pages, Ads Killer checks all the elements therein (banners, text, images) and compares them with filter lists. These lists are a set of "rules" that indicate to Ads Killer which elements you want to block. With Ads Killer you do not need to worry about the lists and rules - they are updated automatically according to the user's region.
Yes, Ads Killer passed all tests for extensions in the official stores (Chrome, Opera, Firefox) - that means that there are no viruses, trojans and other malicious software. Also, personal user's data (passwords, conversations, etc.) is not collected.
Download the extension from this site or from your browser extensions store. After the extension is installed, in the upper right corner of the browser (if you have Google Chrome) a new icon will appear in the form of a target. Go to any website (eg http://lifehacker.ru/) and you will notice that the icon turns red - it means that Ads Killer works and blocks ads on the page!
