I heard from Mo about ad-muncher which is a programme one needs to purchase but
keeps adverts away I did not feel it worked great with Supernova so did not go
beyond the trial. Worth a go I would say as Mo has generally tested something
out before recommending it.

This may not always work but I found that refreshing the youtube page skips
the add. Sometimes I have to do it twice to succeed but other times the add
keeps repeating for no apparent reason!

David,
Yes, it can be done. A button labelled "stop Ad" usually appears a few
seconds in, near to the bottom right hand corner of the video screen. Now,
whether you can get to it with a screen reader I'm not sure. I have some
residual vision, and can just about see enough to prang it with the mouse. May
be you can find the button with the virtual cursor, but usually the sound will
be blasting away by the time the button appears. You could try finding the mute
button first, but by then the ad may well have played out anyway. Sorry, it's
possible, but v v awkward.
Vince.

Hi list,
A friend has asked me to find out from this list how to stop adverts
running on Youtube. He reckons it can be done.
Thanks in advance.
David
