Right now I'm preferring uBO because I can easily add my own rules, e.g. to block youtube. Can I do this with ABPrime, too?New Tobin Paradigm wrote:Greetings,

It provides complete blocking upon browser start at the minor cost of increased overall startup time depending on the amount of filter subscriptions you chose to have loaded. It also provides a higher degree of memory stability over bootstrapped incarnations of the source codebase.
And (if this has already been explained somewhere, please just tell me the link) the quote above states "complete blocking upon browser start", what does that mean in comparison to ABL and others?
My impression was that first the html document itself is downloaded, and then either all links to blocked elements are removed before it is "executed" (the page is rendered and further linked elements are fetched), or that the page is rendered and while this is done, connections to fetch blocked elements are blocked. If any of this is true, how would blocking at browser start make a difference?
Sorry if any of this is bogus, I'm a total noob in the matter, but I know that html documents do not contain certain things like e.g. images, these must be fetched via a href-directive.
