What is this option in the menu items? It references a web address that I do not want there, with the option to disable. I click on it and nothing happens and the web address is still there. Also, how do you get rid of the home links referenced when you click on the menu item Home Links?

Hi there!

ABP stands for "Ad Block Plus". It's a Firefox plugin which will block distracting adverts on webages and prevent you from seeing them.

The ABP option in your menu will turn ad block plus off for the site that you're looking at. Try it! Open up a website of your choice, the press the ABP option and reload the page - suddenly there will be ads everywhere! You can turn it back on by pressing the ABP option again.

Hope that answers your question!

Thanks Jay! ABP has mysteriously disappeared from my Menu now...???? But on the other hand, how does one go about editing the Home Links option in the menu?
