Adblock Plus is a Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, Firefox and Google Chrome extension that attempts to block ads and banners on websites.

By default it includes the EasyList filter, which covers almost any annoying ad from popular websites. However, it also features lots of other filters, or you can create your own filter.

Adblock Plus is a free add-on designed to work with Mozilla Thunderbird 16.0 or later, Firefox for Android 16.0 - 27.0, Mozilla Firefox 16.0 or later, SeaMonkey 2.13 or later, and Google Chrome.

How to Install in Thunderbird:

1. Right-click the link below and choose "Save Link As..." to download and save the file to your hard disk.
2. In Mozilla Thunderbird, open Add-ons from the Tools menu.
3. Click the Install button, and locate/select the file you downloaded and click "OK".
