C++ Opera Adblock possible?
 

I stumbled across this while looking for ways to block ads in Opera.

Does anyone know if the version of Opera shipped with the n800 will work with this plugin assuming it was built correctly?

Thanks

A better bet is to find Privoxy and install that. I'm not sure if or where it is available for the N800 though, but it cleans up a lot of the junk one gets on the web these days, including obnoxious ads.

Hmm. Interesting. There might be a way to manually enable an ad-blocking CSS, but the dialogs to do it don't exist. That said, the config file placeholders are there...

I'll need to fire up an old Opera and try to sift out what will change in opera.ini, but this is interesting-looking.

One can always install Privoxy (from Privoxy.org) to ones desktop machine and try it out. Surf with minimal ads for just a few minutes and you'll be hooked. It's not nice to the sites that survive on ad revenues but... what can you do...

It would be nice to get adblocking working with opera so that I don't have to install yet another application on my n800.

We need to ask Opera to implement the filter feature available in all other versions of Opera. I don't understand why it's not already implemented...
