A while ago, I asked if anyone knew of a content blocker for Firefox.
After my tiresome and diligent search that lasted an entire 2 seconds I found a decent content blocker which is a bit crude, but does a decent job.
Get it
hereFor those interested, it works with the latest version of Firefox. Which is, at the time of this posting, version 1.0.4.
Design and purpose of BlockXXX:
I started work on BlockXXX simply to protect my small brothers from mis-typing urls and getting porn. I decided early on to not use a stringent "blacklist" type design, as there are hundreds of new porn sites added to the net daily, and the overhead involved in keeping an accurate blacklist is way too high. BlockXXX scans the actual HTML document for tell-tale words and phrases. If it finds these words it disables all images and hyperlinks on the page. This design in some cases causes pictures or links to be available for a couple seconds before they are disabled. This is obviously undesirable, however the option to move to a blacklist system is even more undesirable.
