Ad Block Bar
The Ad Block Bar appears on your web site if a visitor is not using an ad blocker, and prompts them to install one.
What does it look like?
If you're running an ad blocker, you can see what it looks like by turning it off and reloading this page.
The design is visually inspired by the Update Your Browser banner.
How to try it
Download this file and this file, and save it in your site's file directory. Remove the adBlockBar.displayOnce = false

<script type="text/javascript" src="fuckadblock.js"></script>And you're done.
