Adblock plus
So I'm running ad block plus extension in Edge, with it obviously disabled for this site since opting in to ads, but no ads are displayed, a 400 error page is in their place (link broken).
Is this something I can resolve, obviously with the amount of bullcrap you get on the web these days ad block is a must (or similar) |

Edge?
Firefox is the best when it's configured properly, or try Brave as well. |

depends what your idea of best is. Edge is comfortably the fastest browser at the moment, Firefox is OK, but every release adds more shit that either doesn't work or slows it down.
I use Edge because if the best for what I use at work, and as such I've got used to it. |

Edge is really good.
I have no experience with ABP for it though. |

Edge is fine unless you happen to have a laptop that all the types of re-install etc doesn't work on after the Windows 10 Creators update. Still waiting for a patch or something along those lines from Microsoft to fix it for my Son in laws dads laptop. I had to put firefox and Opera on for him to access the internet as even Internet explorer was not playing nicely!

Firefox used to be good but ever since that dreadful Chrome-ish Australis ui and the upcoming v57 with removal of xul/xpcom plugins those days are over.
Thank goodness for Pale Moon being around. |

I use Waterfox, an 64-bit browser based on Mozilla Firefox and it can also use the same Add-ons and/or Plugins for Mozilla Firefox. Never had a crash with it and it take's all file extensions and saves them correctly, Have tried Edge, yuk. That browser saves some file extensions as an .txt file and not the original file extension.

Pale Moon is great, I've been using it for several years now. It's also not going to include the upcoming web DRM unlike most other browsers out there, another major plus to sticking with it. I hope this dick move by Mozilla will bring more extension developers to make more native extensions for Pale Moon, at least they won't be dumped on there unlike what Mozilla are doing! |

Edge is ok - there must be something that can really Fly on these power house computers just a simple browser?

Having tested it at work, and at home after updating to insider preview 16299 the ads don't work on edge, chrome or IE at all. So could probably do with being looked at when RCK has time.

Hum, google disabled adsense here for 7 days because I was not displaying the "cookie alert" (eu laws), so that's why you had 404
