• 0 Stars. Won't run

  YousafMSOctober 18, 2017

  Pros

  Can't think of any.

  Cons

  It wouldn't install on a laptop running Windows 10 - 64-bit.

  Summary

  Too bad '0' stars is not an option.

• Works Great

  May 13, 2004

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  Much better than the AD software that comes with Norton Internet Security. Simple to use, and has a pretty easy method of adding specific ads to block list. Also pretty easily allows you to unblock specific pages. On the neg. side, it could be made even easier, and it only works with Internet Explorer. And it does have an uninstaller!!!

• Works good but no uninstaller

  March 21, 2004

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  The program works fine but there is no uninstaller if you choose not to purchase it leaving a crippled program. You can delete the program files but it still leaves the program options in the drop down box when you right click on something.

• Works well in blocking annoying ads

  December 23, 2003

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  Blocks ads (images AND flash-based ads). Not very intrusive(is embedded in IE), flexible (allows you to block or unblock specific URLs or parts of URLs). I have used Norton Internet Security Ad Blocker, but didn't like it at all. I really prefer Adshield.

  Summary

  I have not been able to load my ISP's proprietary version of IE since installing AdShield. If someone has a suggestion, I'd be glad to hear it.

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  Not bad overall, although it did screw up Windows Update and Office Update - IE6, Windows XP, so I've had to un-install it.
