Ad Annihilator Project Wizard

Ad Annihilator Project Wizard is launched each time you create a new Ad Annihilator project. It helps you to configure a new project quickly and easily.

The wizard consists of several steps. To move between steps, use Back, Next and Finish buttons. Clicking Cancel will disrupt project creation process and no project will be created.

Step 1 - Welcome

On this screen you are able to choose if you would like to configure your new project manually or automatically using default settings. Automatic configuration is recommended and suits to most of users. However, if you wish to fine-tune project settings, you should employ manual configuration process. With Ad Annihilator Project Wizard it is very easy.

Choices available:

• "I want to configure Ad Annihilator project manually" - choose this if you want to perform manual configuration. If you choose this option, Ad Annihilator Project Wizard proceeds to other steps;

• "Use default settings (skip this wizard)" - choose this if you want to configure the project automatically with default settings. These settings are detailed below in the further steps description.

Step 2 - Setup predefined filters

On this screen you are able to choose if you would like to import predefined Ad Annihilator filters. Ad Annihilator comes with a number of predefined filters that effectively block banners, popups and cookies. These filters block advertisements and cookies from a lot of advertiser sites. You may import these filters to this project so as it be able to block ads and cookies right away.

See Understanding banner filters, Understanding popup filters and Understanding cookie filters for information on what filters are. See What can I do to block advertisements? and What could I do to protect my privacy? to learn how filters help to fight advertisements and protect your privacy.

Choices available:

• "Yes" - predefined filters will be imported into the new project. Ad Annihilator starts to block banners, popups and cookies right after you start browsing with new project;

• "No" - the project is created with empty filters. You'll have to manually configure filters later using techniques set out in What can I do to block advertisements? and What could I do to protect my privacy? Popups and most cookies will be blocked anyway.

Step 3 - Advanced settings

On this screen you are able to setup advanced project settings. This currently includes "Block third-party resources" setting. See What can I do to block advertisements? for information on its usage.
