Blocking Facebook Ads with GlimmerBlocker

I use GlimmerBlocker and Click To Flash for ad blocking on the Mac.

Annoyingly, GlimmerBlocker doesn't seem to block Facebook sidebar ads by default.

However, that's easy to fix.

Add a new rule. Set

  • Action: Whitelist URL
  • Host is: "www.facebook.com"

Click the css tab at the top.

Enter the following CSS:

#pagelet_adbox { display: none !important; }

Click "Save", and try loading a Facebook page.

It worked for me... your mileage may vary...
