So, Adblock still has troubles, eh? My main question is whether there's still no fix for the supposed sluggishness it causes in Microb. Other issues I can deal with, but Microb is slow enough as it is.

I'm guessing there's lots of scripts for Greasemonkey for ad-removal. Has anyone found some that work well with Microb?

Lastly, to shove all of my ad-blocking questions into one post, is there a way to disable Adblock without uninstalling it?
It's not that hard to experiment with it, instead of relying on what other people say. Yes, you can disable it, which is handy because it causes some sites not to load at all, on my system. When it works, I don't notice any slowness penalty. In fact, it speeds things up significantly on many sites because you don't have to wait for innumerable ads to download. Give it a try.
