How To Block Ads in Your Facebook Profile

Facebook is definitely one of the biggest social networks today, and many people tend to spend a lot of time interacting with their friends and family there. For people who spend longer time on Facebook the advertisements may start to get a bit annoying.

Here is a simple trick on how you can block ads on Facebook.

  1. Download and install Greasemonkey Firefox extension, if you are not already using it.
  2. For old Facebook users install the Block Facebook Ad’s user script and for those using the new Facebook interface download the New Facebook Layout Ad Killer user script.
  3. Refresh the Facebook page and the ads should disappear.

That’s it once the page is refreshed you will no longer see any advertisements. Thanks Moin.

Greasemonkey is a Firefox add-on, read our article on how you can run Greasemonkey scripts in Internet Explorer, Opera and Safari.

    Facebook Ads are quite annoying and sometimes NSFW. Just applied the script. Thanks

    Have you noticed the irony of an article about blocking ads on a site completely littered with ads?
