AdBlocker Plus help with Captcha Please

Options
Hi
Can anyone give me any advice about ABP? It seems to block all videos but only the first few captchas on each site.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

    Ad Blockers not really meant to block the Captcha's. Captcha's are random, sometimes they'll appear and sometimes not (Im guessing your talking about the Click to wins), It's not Ad blocker that's stopping them from being shown, it's just the randomness of them appearing (although some sites do have a higher tendency to show them).
    You'll usually get away with doing a few without Captcha's, but then once you get one on a site you'll keep getting them for the rest of that session.
    I usually go through the smaller sites, which only have 4 or 5 comps, then just give up as soon as a captcha appears. Sites like WinSomething where there's 20-odd pages of comps, you're gonna have to go through quite a few captchas I'm afraid.
