Could you PLEASE explain in PLAIN ENGLISH how to do this? (Maybe I'm dense - I asked JohninKansas upthread to explain something in layman's terms and could not understand his response at all - but have mercy. I'm a music geek, not a tech geek.)
I'm using a version of Firefox with Adblock Plus. I haven't used Jack's nuclear option - I've only blocked the 2 addresses on the Mudcat front page. This is done in Adblock Plus. The location of buttons may be different in Windows, but the steps should be the same.
1. On Mudcat front page, click the down arrow by the ABP icon (bottom left of window for me).
2. Click 'Open blockable items' (shortcut Ctrl-Shift-V)
3. In the window that appears, right click on each target item and select 'Block this item'. You may find that 'Enter' does the same thing.
4 Done.
