that AdBlock does; specifically, they cannot prevent URLs from
being downloaded, although they <em>can</em> remove DOM elements
and thereby cancel pending downloads.</p>
<p>However, there are old UserScripts, like AdSweep, that do a
decent job of trying to block ads.</p>
<p>The only place I can think of on Android where UserScripts work
and AdBlock does not is Opera Mobile Classic, where the best you
can do is go to opera:config and set the UserJS directory and the
URL Filter File to a place that is user-writable.</p></div>James Edward Lewis IItag:old-support.getadblock.com,2013-08-06:Comment/360516982015-02-16T17:38:54Z2015-02-16T17:38:54ZAdblock to userscript for any platform<div><p>On Android, we recommend using <a href=
