The only reason I use the AdBlock is to stop that annoying pop-ups and click-ads from appear!! I have many websites on whitelist because they don't abuse on the ads!!

Not all of them are viruses but I must admit that some of them are and they are really disturbing.

I suggest don't ever install adblock as it blocks many of genunine sites. Like when I installed it doesn't allow me to visit google adwords and bing as well.

The only place I ever felt it necessary to use adblock was Radio Loyalty which I used on Chatabout. I was riddled with popups which kept triggering my virus alert. I just used to put it on when I was listening to the radio because I felt that if they were prepared to use cheap advertising with no regard for their members they deserved it. Swagbucks UK took the radio off their site because of the constant complaints from their members of virus alerts.

Advertising doesn't normally bother me as long as it doesn't involve constant popups and I know that sites like this one need it in order to pay us so I'm quite happy to display it :D

For 2 reasons you shouldn't, there are 1000 of reasons you should. And I don't think reason 2 is correct anyway, haven't experienced slower loading. I have adblock turned off for a few website I want to support (including FC) but that's it.

I'm the same. I have only proactively turned off Adblock (for ForumCoin and other sites). I personally see something wrong with my- and others- attitude regarding adblock. Effectively, rulings by Judges have said that people have a right to do what they want to block or change ads. The, historically, doesn't make sense. When you watch free-to air TV, you watch the ads too. I believe website owners should start disallowing ad block users to view their sites OR switch to private ads which get around the filters.

That's why I don't watch TV. It's an old format and advertising has to change too.

Is it true that it can make the video load slower?
I am using ad blocker because my laptop was infected of a virus that will automatically download a program when the adblock program is off. My antivirus can not delete the virus.
