I just downloaded and installed google chrome and noticed that it is tons faster. But, now I see all those ugly ads again that adblocker got rid of. Is there a program or setting I can use with Google Chrome to get rid of them again?

We also get in trouble from the mods for posting links to or recommending add blocking software.

Given that Chrome is made by an ad company, I doubt there will ever be built-in ad-blocking software for it. There are other solutions, but as others have already said here, it's a moddable offense to go into specifics.

Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

Stick with Firefox or Internet Explorer Pro if you want ad-blocking.
