Block all ads before they get to your browser.

Unlike other ad blockers that only work with specific browsers, StopAd is a simple all-in-one solution that blocks ads on the network level.

StopAd effectively blocks:
  • Popups
  • Banner ads
  • YouTube ads
  • Auto-start video and audio ads
  • Facebook and Google ads
  • Skype ads
  • Much more

Only StopAd uses a 3-tiered approach to block ads effectively.

  • URL Blocking StopAd blocks ad requests that are sent to denied addresses and returns an empty response to the browser, so requests are not sent at all. It saves internet traffic and decreases page loading time.
  • CSS scanning StopAd can scan a page’s code and uses special algorithms that change the parameters of any webpage element to hide ads on the page.
  • HTML filtering StopAd filters HTML code to remove ad images, links and scripts before they reach your browser. Browser extensions can’t do this.
Privacy protection
Privacy protection
Privacy is our #1 concern and we think trackers go too far, so we block those, too.

In 2016, search engines made over 100 billion dollars—partly by selling your personal data to advertisers. StopAd deactivates online trackers so search engines, advertisers and cyber criminals can’t collect your personal data when you’re online.

Privacy is a right. We keep it that way.

  • Block ad trackers Advertisers track your browsing behavior and show you ads based on the sites you visit, the videos you watch and more. Creepy, right?
  • Block social media trackers Facebook sells your personal data to advertisers so they can show you highly personalized (and some would say invasive) ads.
  • Block data trackers With web analytics tools, companies track and analyze which links you click, which pages you visit most often, what you search for and more.
Web protection

Stop identity thieves, scammers and phishers.

Every single day thousands of people have to deal with the horrors of identity theft. Don’t let it happen to you. StopAd has built-in anti-malware and anti-phishing protection so you can browse safely.

Online fraud can cost you time, money and headaches.

  • Stop malware A malicious website is a website where you can get infected with a virus. StopAd acts as a shield between you and these websites by automatically monitoring lists of malicious websites and filtering them out.
  • Stop phishing Phishing websites can steal your personal data, credit card info, passwords and more without you even knowing it’s happening. StopAd’s built-in anti-phishing tool can detect these sites and steer you away from danger.
