    The Adblock Plus: Element Hiding Helper doesn't seem to work in the last FF 3.5.3 nor Minefield.

    Are you using it in an earlier version?

    I think this a good a chance as any to mention my Firefox User Sanity Maintenance Pack ... a small
    collection of Firefox add-ons I always include on any Firefox install, all wrapped in one convenient
    package for single download. It's currently upto v1.5 .... an updated v1.5.1 is coming soon.

    Not sure what I'm doing wrong then. Do you have no script too?

    Nuke Anything Enhanced

    Allows you to remove any element from a page. Handy if a dodgy pic appears on a page when in work! Just right click and Nuke it!
