I like the idea of user-friendly, but can we satisfy both the power user and the newbie? Perhaps, only time will tell, but you're correct, it's high time that someone tried, and did more than just give it lip service.

kuruden, what a_s_b is describing is exactly what Norton does right now with it's ad blocker. When you see an ad you don't like (And that probably approaches 100% of all ads, right? :P ), you merely bring up the Ad-Trashcan, click-and-drag the ad into said trashcan, and Presto!, no more ad. Slick mechanism. Even better, if you wish, you can modify the address of that add in a dialog box (presumably to encompass the server where many such ads are stored). Now we're talkin' user-friendly!

BTW, FWIW, that particular scenario I just illustrated does not auto re-load the page. If you wanna double-check to see that you've done the job correctly, you must manually re-load the page. And these programmers are the high-priced spread. Go figure.

a_s_b, that's like asking the program to read your mind, not what you typed! :P Big Teeth [lol] But Cheers for the idea, it sure would be nice.
