Not the intended use.

One of my favourite uses for AdBlock is to banish icons I hate from ever being seen on my monitor again.

Yep.

OMG. I didn't realize you could do that with AdBlock.

Been a while since I had any that upset me or simply didn't care to see, but maybe I should invest in this. . .

I didn't know if it would work until I tried, but there was this gross icon I kept seeing, so try I did. Be mindful to always select the most specific option when blocking icons, though, or else you might block ALL icons! :O
