How do you get rid of all the stupid ads on facebook apps? - αиα - 11-09-2012 11:31 AM

I used to not get any at all and I don't exactly know when it started. They are like annoying pop-up adds but in Facebook itself, not in new windows. I looked through my privacy settings, account settings, even this place where you chose which ads show on Facebook but none of them are any help to me. At first I thought it was only on one app, but then I noticed it was on all of them. I don't get it!

Here is an screenshot I took of it when I was using the @Hugs app, but it's on more than one, almost all, actually!

Sometimes there up to three or four at a time, and they almost always say 'Okay' or 'Continue.' On the example it says 'Next' but some don't even give me that option. Either way, it wasn't always like this and it pisses me off.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks!

You can use extensions or add ons to block ads on Facebook.

If you are using Google Chrome, go to https://chrome.google.com/extensions/search?itemlang=&q=facebook+ads+remove

If you are in Firefox, go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/remove-all-facebook-ads/

Hope this helps.
