| | | | | | | | It's a great tool. Try it for a day and you will see the difference. | | | | This is one of the very few programs that I'm really LOVING! | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | I just want to add that before Ad Muncher, I had to endure tedious minutes of ads for every news clip on Yahoo! News or FoxNews. I simply did not imagine that Ad Muncher was able to prevent those ads from playing. It's worth every cent I paid for it and I will surely recommend to all and sundry. | | | | | | | |
| | | | Introduction
The internet has become for webmasters and companies a way of running/improving their company with the possibility of millions viewing their site on a regular basis. But since it costs money to run these sites, and trying to breakeven with expenses, banner ads and popups are sources of income they need to pay off their expenses.
But what about those people who go on companies' websites to try to find information about a product or read up reviews on certain items? Chances are that these sites have quite a few ads thus increasing the amount of time it would take to load a particular site.
People are fed up with advertising because they hear it whether they watch TV, listen to the radio or even surf the web. But it's a fact of life we as people have to deal with and it helps companies to pay off their own expenses at the same time.
But what if there was a way to stop these annoying popups and remove the unwanted ads to make sites load faster? It is music to people's ears; although I. myself don't find banner ads so annoying as long as they aren't those flashing ones but popups are a different story. There are plenty of programs out there claiming to remove ads from websites and try to stop all popups to the best of the program's capability but this review is going to cover a program called Ad Muncher.
Functionality
Ad Muncher is an ad-removing and popup blocking program that will eliminate all sources of advertising whether it'll be on websites or better yet IM tools! Today all instant messaging programs come with advertising whether it is AIM, MSN, ICQ or Yahoo! because the possibility of a great income stream from ads is likely and also it helps cover the cost of bandwidth when chatting to people.
Ad Muncher has lots of options to choose from to help keep your netviewing more secure, and less tedious. Ad Muncher comes with a set of pre-defined sites that are 'offenders' by using popups, annoying ads and what not to create the best viewing experience for the user. People can also send in their lists of 'offending' websites to help contribute to the cause of fighting annoying websites.
There are some neat tools that are provided like IP scramble where when in use with a proxy server, your real IP address isn't logged so they won't know if you went to the site or not. Some other great features include: disabling of colored scrollbars, remove background music and much more so you can control what you want to see and not let the designer themselves control what you want.
You have the ability to create filters to also block stuff that you yourself might find annoying on websites and creates the best viewing experience for yourself. There is also and update feature to help keep your program up to date and also its filtering options.
Conclusion
Ad Muncher is a program that has many options to choose from and makes sure the user wants to view sites the way the person wants and not the designer themselves. Not only does this program block popups, it also removes ads which many people find annoying along with popups.
I feel that many people will enjoy the benefits of using this program; especially those who use Internet Explorer as their main browser since it doesn't have popup blocking capabilities like Opera or Mozilla does.

| | | | Simply a great program. Well worth the money, makes the internet worth using again. Thank you murray. | | | | | | | |
| | | | As a software developer, I know how difficult it is to create an application like Ad Muncher. For that reason alone, when I say Ad Muncher is a great product, I know that what I'm saying is true. There is no other product that compares to Ad Muncher. | | | | | | | | | | Frank Gennaro, United States | | | | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | Ad Muncher is the best!!!!! | | | | Works very well! | | | | Works as advertised. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | I have tried many, but Ad-Muncher is king of them all. A really great program. | | | | | | | | | | Fred Noakes of Ontario, Canada | | | | |
| |
| | | | Fast, effective, and you can block some ads and leave others if you wish. Is reasonably priced, updated often, what more can you hope for in software? | | | | | | | |
| | | | Ad Muncher lets my children use the computer without being exposed to inappropriate/offensive images. It has given me peace of mind. | | | | | | | |
| | | | I was using another paid ad blocking product but with the imminent arrival of Windows 7, I needed to find one that was compatible with that. My searching led me to Ad Muncher and after the 30 day trial left me completely satisfied with its capabilities, it was a no-brainer to purchase two copies, one for my desktop and one for my laptop. Great job, Ad Munchers. | | | | | | | | | | Stephen Aymes, United States | | | | |

| | | | A great utility that simply and seamlessly removes those ignoring adverts and flash animations that plague so many web sites these days. First class! | | | | | | | | | | Simon Batley, United Kingdom | | | | |

| | | | I was skeptical at first, but now I'm a believer! A really great and helpful app! Not only does it remove ads perfectly in FF and IE, it's really like Banquo said below: "(The Firefox extension) AdBlock is simply unacceptable". Since I'm using Ad Muncher instead Firefox isn't having RAM issues anymore! | | | | | | | |
| | | | No more ads - what peace! Now I can actually surf the web and read the content without being blitzed by flashing, flipping, moving, unwanted ads. And I love the cow, too! | | | | | | | |
| | | | Fully automatic setup, no broken pages (so far), all ads filtered, easy to implement custom rules and exceptions, plus works in all browsers - we have a winner :) | | | | | | | |
