Using Adblock Plus Options in Chrome

Adblock Plus Filter Options

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.
