Block ads in any browser

No matter how beautiful and mysterious the almost endless expanses of the Internet are, they are fraught with no less dangers than interesting and useful materials. Therefore, many users, in order to travel through the Internet quickly and safely, prefer to install specialized software on their PCs, which protects them from many online problems. But what to do if such an ad blocker is installed for specific browsers and does not work for other software, is rarely updated...

In the case of Adguard things are really simpler. This program does not require the installation of separate plugins and extensions; it is suitable for blocking ads on all known browsers without prior configuration - Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome, Yandex browser and other browsers will interact with it equally effectively. The same applies to search engines. Use the one that is most convenient for you at the moment: Google, Rambler, Yandex, Yahoo and others.

Advantages of Adguard:

  1. a nice bonus is the introduction of a new mechanism that closely monitors RAM and tracks any phishing attempts to influence the integrity of your funds in online banking systems;
  2. pre-blocked advertising in the browser from numerous sites greatly facilitates the loading of Internet pages, freeing up some of the saved traffic for other needs of the operating system;
  3. an additional level of protection - the program is not blocked at all by common antiviruses and firewalls, thereby increasing the security performance of OS Windows significantly.
  4. The program's database of unreliable Internet sites is constantly expanding. For its high-quality formation, developers, in addition to their own efforts, collaborate with such well-known sources as: Malware Domains, Google Safe Browsing and useful lists from Web of Trust. This way, Adguard easily recognizes almost all fraudulent and outright malicious resources, which are best avoided;

This is because Adguard blocks advertising videos, large flickering banners, and distracting pop-up notifications even before the page itself opens in front of you) .

He simply will not be able to access a site that is dangerous for him, which will be immediately blocked.

Hello everyone, Adguard is a unique program that cuts out ads and does it in an advanced way. That is, this is not an extension in the browser, it is a program that sniffs out advertising in modern browsers and removes it (in programs like Skype, it also seems to remove advertising). It removes both simple advertising and all sorts of pop-up windows, video advertising, and removes all kinds of viral garbage.

The program also contains a list of not entirely normal sites, that is, some kind of hacker sites or simply those that can be dangerous for the user. This list is updated regularly which is a plus.

The program also implements the WOT (Web of Trust) service, which can help determine the site’s reputation, which is created by the users themselves.

I downloaded the Adguard program, installed it and now I will see how it works. By the way, during installation, the program tries to sell you software from Yandex, if you don’t need it, then do not forget to move these sliders during installation:


When Adguard is running, the following green icon will appear on the pages in the browser, it is almost transparent, but if you hover your mouse over it, it will turn green:


If you click on it, a small window with important buttons will appear:


As you can see, here you can block an element, open settings, complain about the site and see its reputation according to WOT.

If you click the Assistant Settings button, you will see the following settings:


It may happen that somehow an advertisement appears on the site, then to remove it, you need to click on the Block element button and select an object with an advertisement on the page. All objects that can be selected will have a green frame when hovered with the mouse, like this:


Once you have selected the object, a window will pop up where you need to click on Block:


And that’s it, after this, there will be no advertising block! So I chose the Traffic Jams block as an example, this is on the main page of Yandex. Well, when I blocked him, he simply disappeared on the page, as if he never existed. This locking feature is really very convenient.

Advertising blocks well, clearly and quickly, that is, I don’t see any special differences from the extension in blocking, well, except that it’s an extension, and this is a program. I haven’t used the program much, but for some reason I still can’t switch to using the program instead of the extension... But according to the first impression, everything works as it should - quickly and the computer doesn’t seem to load...

For some users, judging by the reviews, the program is stuck. Does not block ads in some browsers. And some even claim that this program is viral, and that they almost stole money. What a joke. But I myself have known this program not for a long time, but it’s not new, that’s for sure. Well, this is not a viral program. But something tells me that the program (which, by the way, has recently become free) will be better than Adguard..

Adguard starts with Windows, sits in the manager under processes such as AdguardSvc.exe and Adguard.exe:


The program is launched from this folder:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Adguard


And of course the program sits in the tray and has this icon:

If you right-click on it, you will see the following menu:


There is a Settings item, if you select it, a window will open with proprietary functions such as Anti-banner, Anti-tracking, Anti-Phishing. As you can see, there are a lot of tricks here that are aimed at filtering content in the browser:


On the General Settings tab, you can disable Adguard autorun with Windows, but then you will need to launch it manually to block ads in browsers.

On the Filtered applications tab, you can add a program that will be scanned by Adguard for advertising:


In principle, there is nothing complicated in the settings, I advise you not to disable anything here, everything is configured so that malicious or just junk sites with a lot of advertising are blocked

The only thing is that I advise you to also enable Anti-Tracking, since for some reason it is disabled by default. You can enable it here:


Well what can I say? It seems like a good program

My opinion about the program is this:

  • the program effectively blocks ads, but at the same time it doesn’t seem to get into the browsers themselves, it just combs the browsers using some advanced method;
  • Adguard is not free, the evaluation period is 14 days, and then you need to buy; price about 200 rubles; despite the fact that I waived the fee and became completely free, by the way, try it, it’s really a good alternative;
  • you can add any program in which advertising will be cut out; and by the way, this is really true, that is, such programs as Skype, uTorrent, ICQ, advertising in all of them can be removed, you just need to add the program to the list;
  • if there are advertisements on the site anyway, then you can very easily block them manually, you can also block simply those objects on the site that you do not need; By the way, this is really a super plus, a couple of clicks and you can hide from your favorite site everything that can only distract you;
  • I don’t know about others, but during installation I was asked to install any software from Yandex; This is not a minus, but often users do not pay attention to these checkboxes (in my case there were slider switches) and as a result they end up with software that they did not order; in general it is unpleasant;

Oops, here's what else I noticed. It turns out that Adguard even installs its own service! So I went to the Task Manager, on the Services tab I clicked this button:


And a window opened with a list of services, where I saw the Adguard Service:


If you double-click on a service, the following window will appear:

As you can see, this service runs under the AdguardSvc.exe process. In principle, this service can be stopped, just select Disabled in the Startup Type and click the Stop button. But I don’t know if this will affect ad blocking or not, in any case, if so, you can turn it back on (just return everything as it was in the service properties).

How to completely remove Adguard from your computer?

In general, I looked at this Adguard, looked and came to the conclusion that everything is fine, but for now I will stay with the extension in the browser... Still, both the processes and the service... I’m somehow more used to extensions

To remove Adguard, you can use a special remover, which will remove the program and any remaining junk from the program will also be deleted! In general I recommend

But if you don’t want to mess with any programs, then that’s okay, you can delete them using the built-in tools of Windows itself!

First, click Start and select Control Panel there:


If you have a new Windows 10, then this item is in the menu, which is called up with the Win + X buttons! This is a note for you!

Then we find the Programs and Features icon and launch it:


A list of software will open, there will be all the software that is on your computer. Here you need to select Adguard, right-click on it and select Delete:


The following window will appear, to remove Adguard completely, then check the box so that the settings are also deleted, and then click the Remove Adguard button:


It will be deleted quickly, after which a page on the Internet will be opened saying that they are sorry that you are leaving:


Well, that’s all... in principle, the removal is complete... but if you are an advanced user who still monitors the cleanliness of the system, then you can clean the registry! But how? It's simple, you can definitely do it! Look, hold down Win + R and write the regedit command in the window:


The registry editor will open, and so, in it you need to hold down Ctrl + F and write the word adguard in the field, and opposite click the Find next button:


Now watch, the search will begin. All that will be found are all traces of the Adguard program, they need to be removed. That is, right-click on the selected element and select Delete there. All found results will be highlighted; what is not highlighted does not need to be deleted! To continue the search, press the F3 button until a message appears that the search is complete

You need to delete as found keys:


Here are the folders found:


This way you can delete all those keys and folders that remained after removing Adguard. I’m just that kind of person, I’m used to cleaning my computer always so thoroughly, because I don’t remove programs that often.. I installed the necessary ones and that’s it. But it is not necessary to do all this, that is, you will not have any brakes if you leave this garbage. But if you often uninstall programs, then this garbage may eventually become more and more... it’s better to remove it...

By the way, when deleting junk from the registry, you will see this window:


Yes, everything said here is true! But we know what we are deleting! Therefore, do not pay attention to this message, the main thing is not to delete anything unnecessary

So I did, but there I was looking for more garbage among the files! If you're interested, take a look!

I hope that I wrote everything in an understandable and accessible language. Good luck in life, be healthy
