Why are there unwanted ads all over Facebook? - Sophia - 11-09-2012 11:46 AM

I highlighted all the ads in this screen shot in red. I use Mozilla Firefox and these ads honestly came out of nowhere as far as I know.

My question is how do I permanently remove these and future ads?
Are ads new then? Because about an hour ago I had never seen that many ads all over my news feed.

The ads are how they pay for site and make money. You can't remove ads

To pay for the web site.

It pays for Facebook.

If you use Firefox, (Or Google Chrome, but I recommend firefox more.) Theres an "Ap" for it called Ad Blocker Plus. You can use it to block all ads, I don't even know what an ad looks like anymore, to tell you the truth!

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/ Download this.

http://easylist.adblockplus.org/en/ And then download the first two lists on the site. Feel free to add whichever blockers you would like, after doing so :]. (Add them.)
