My blog posts starts with the following two assumptions:

2. You are annoyed that each time you click on an link from an email in ThunderBird, the current application (ThunderBird) loses focus and immediately switches to FireFox;
3. You need to click on a lot of links in ThunderBird, for my solutions to be worth the time spent on them.
So, how to solve the problem? +Continue Reading

This blog thrives on ads. It also thrives on getting people more information and practical uses of it. I see no conflict between the two, so this blog post is specifically on removing blog ads generally and for this blog specifically.

You might want to keep the ads just to see how other people would promote a web site in two lines. I personally remove ads from FireFox, and keep them in Opera.
Now that you know why should you remove ads, read on to see how to remove them. +Continue Reading
