What are you using to block advertisements?

kwikbreaks

URLs gathered using adblockplus blocakbe items...

http://realmedia.channel4.com/RealMedia/ads/adstream_mjx.ads/www.channel4.com/programmes/drama/hollyoaks/4od

http://www.channel4.com/media/scripts/oasconfig/admanager-v3.js

http://www.channel4.com/static/programmes/html/adverts/advert.htm

This is of course just from one page and others may use other ad servers. Plus my adblockplus filter may not be blocking everything and I've only pasting in those which it is. If it doesn't work then you could use the same technique - Firefox/Adblockplus/blockable items

What if both methods are being used concurrently? It occurs to me that allowing an ad to be displayed by one won't matter a whit if the other is blocking it as well.
