Grab this attachment. unzip it somewhere. backup your N900's current hosts file. copy this hosts file to /etc/hosts on your N900.

Thats about it. Works well for me but I make no guarantees about yours etc.

would adflashblock not stop the flash ads loading anyway and solve this problem? well nol it doesn't solve the problem since i'm already using it, but i was under the impression that was the whole point of it?
