Add a new filter list

Find a filter list

Adblock Plus requires filter lists to block ads. The following filter lists come pre-installed with Adblock Plus:

  • Acceptable Ads
  • EasyList (+ bundled language filter list - depending on your browser’s language setting)
  • ABP Anti-circumvention filter list

You can choose additional lists that match your browsing habits. You can find a list of our recommendations here: View actively maintained filter lists.

Note

As a recommendation, you should avoid adding too many filter lists to Adblock Plus. Adding too many filter lists slows down the ad blocker and, therefore, your browsing.
