Using Adblock Plus Options in Chrome
Filterlists are required by Adblock Plus to block annoying ads. By
default, Adblock
Plus will automatically suggest a filterlist to you
based on the language settings of your browser. The default filter list
would be EasyList. The list consits of most popular ad elements that are
to be blocked. The add-on also allows you to add your own filters to
the list of items which you feel annoying. But, too many filterlists
would slow down the Adblock Plus, hence it is recommened to not use more
filters.
