This worked great! Now how do you get the newest facebook crap off your screen. I mean the people you may know box on the sidebar. Can it be done using the ad blocker also?

Thank you. I’m not computer savvy but was able to figure it out.

I think you used the word “folder” where you meant “filter,” but as there’s no ‘folder’ window I was able to figure it out — more or less. Works like a charm. Thanks so much!

Thanks for an easy and effective fix. This has gone into the browser on every computer I own or operate.

Although I occasionally use Facebook Chat, I have it connected to my regular instant messenger program, so I really don’t need it popping up in the browser as well. Disabling chat in the site unfortunately turns it off in both places. Adblocking the box gets the job done.

If I turn off the chat feature and someone tries to contact me via chat, what will they see?

I have AdBlock Plus 1.1.3, and it makes no mention of Folder and New Folder.

It does have Filter and Add Filter, and they worked with your method.

Thanks for the very helpful method.
