| -Adblock Plus requires filter lists to block ads. A default filter list - EasyList - based on your browser's language settings is automatically activated when you install Adblock Plus. It blocks ads from the most popular (often English language-based) websites. However, it does not block ads on less popular national websites. For example, if you live in Germany you should subscribe to the national German filter list. |
| +Some nonintrusive ads are displayed by default. If you want to block all ads, this feature must be turned off. |

| ### Check to see if your computer is infected with adware/malware |
| ##### What is adware? |
| Adware is a type of malware, short for "malicious software." It's a term generally used for software installed on your computer that is designed to infiltrate or damage a computer system without your consent. In many cases you obtained this software without knowing it, as these applications are often bundled in other software installers. |
