29 In order to test the extension, you need to register the Browser
30 Helper Object with IE. You can do this by locating _AdblockPlus.dll_
31 (e.g. in _build\ia32\Debug_) and running (with elevated privileges):
32
33 regsvr32 AdblockPlus.dll
34
35 For the UI to work, you also need to copy the _html_ and _locale_
36 directories to the same directory _AdblockPlus.dll_ is in.
