Privoxy does seem to prevent Wayfinder to download maps. Just make sure that you have a second connection defined that bypasses privoxy.

I was having very very slow Web surfing till I decided to disable adblock. The experience without this extension is much faster for me.

Thanks for Adblock! Just a wish item for future releases... Move the AB icon to lower left. I keep hitting it trying to scroll down the page. Make location selectable if you think someone will complain.

An other positive report

The extension was not running, so I had to delete:

• the extensions.rfd file
• the directory /extensions
• the extensions.cache file

all under the .mozilla/ directory

after that everything has been working perfectly!

Thanks

Very helpful thread. Got ABP installed and running this afternoon, and it makes life so much nicer when hitting sites like CNN and the Weather Channel.

Re: Adblock Plus for MicroB released!
 

I tried ABP out today, I had to do the "delete extensions.rdf" thing before it worked properly.

The browser performance seems to have suffered, I guess the Javascript engine is being stressed by parsing URLs when a page loads. I use gmail and Google Reader frequently on my N800, both heavily JS driven and they seem slower so I think I'll have to disable this plugin.

Time to get out the eeePC I've just received, I need something that doesn't need quite so much effort to manage change.

Re: Adblock Plus for MicroB released!
 

To everybody who is experiencing slower browsing, you do not need to uninstall adblock, you can just tell it to ignore those sites.

EDIT: maybe you need to... I "uninstalled" it (but the red square is still there!!!:mad:) and I have tried deleting /adblock from /microb with no success... I uninstalled it because it "dissappeared" for an unknown reason, and then reappeared (already uninstalled)

REFLASH time!! :eek:
