Help with remove Antix ad blocker service/server

[Member alguno324178]

Hi everyone. Does anyone know how to remove, or delete, whatever is necessary so that I no longer have the ad blocker mvps.org? Antix offers without installing it, an utility called “AntiX Advert Blocker”.
Ok, but if I want to get it out how do I?
I chose the first option and now I don’t know how to remove it.

…and redo without ” mvps.org”

I really appreciate you, but I wrote what you told me in the terminal and it took me to the “AntiX Advert Blocker” executable. I already know how to do that from the menu (I downloaded the MATE interface). Anyway. I don’t want any kind of ad blocker. I just wanted to give it a try and now I prefer to view advertising even though it’s annoying.
I would appreciate it if you could tell me how to remove it because from the application there isn’t tick marked but it keeps blocking the advertising.
In other words, mvps.org is still working. In fact, AntiX asked me to restart the computer to get it working.
Thanks.

Read oops answer carefully. select UNBLOCK option (the one at the bottom) to remove any adblock list installed.

You can then remove adblock with
sudo apt purge advert-block-antix
AFTER you have disabled all adblock lists.

No problem, alguno. I also many times miss the instructions or post messages because of reading to fast or getting distracted while reading. And many times we assume when explaining things that other people look in the same places we do and we give vague instructions thinking they are clear enough.

I think this topic on the adblocker hasn’t been mentioned before, so it is good you raised the question, so it can solve the same problem in the future for other users.

Temporarily remove or switch ad blocking hosts file was pretty near.

As usual we end up with multiple threads on subjects which would be better grouped in one
