I need a decent image blocker.

Post by Enigma »

Due to the current crisis on this board I need a decent image blocker for IE. I've got Ad Blocker and IE7Pro but they don't take preemptive measures to remove images before the page loads. My family and my little niece and nephew do not want to see the pics that the trolls have placed on this board.

IE7Pro, has a built in flash and ad blocker but it only takes preemtive measures on flash images and ads but to remove images I have to do it manually.

As for Ad Blocker, I can't tell if it is doing anything but for all I know it is doing the same thing as IE7Pro.

Help?

Why not just turn images off in board settings?

Go to user control panel, preferences, display preferences, turn "images in posts" off.

Go into the user control panel-board preferences-edit display options and choose "no" for: Display images within posts

That will disable all the images in everyones posts.
