We do not guarantee the efficiency of tests handled in the Internet. Conditions in the Web may vary from day to day. So for tests handled in the Internet we provide screenshots (for other tests we provide them too, though).

Explanation
By "black list"
Here we got 6 banners with advertising URLs. 3 of them are buil-in page, and other ones are generated by script.
By banner dimensions stored in application
Here we got 8 banners. 4 of them are of standard adv. dimentions, but do not have advertising URLs (468x60 and 728x90). And other 4 banners have the same parameters, but their dimensions differ a little bit (726x88, 466x58). We have inserted these off-dimension banners into our test page just to show the situation when web masters try to cheat ad blockers by changing banner dimentions by 1-2 pixels. Half of banners are built -in and other are generated by script.
By dimensions set by user
This page contains off-dimension banners. When surfing the Net you can see some 100% banners, that are off-dimension, do not contain adv. URLs and thus are not concidered as a banner by ad blockers. Then you'd better turn on the option to block banners of user-set size. Banners below are of 300x125 pixels. Try to add new banner size (300x125) to the list of size filters to see if your ad blocking software can fight such ads. 2 banners are built in, and other 2 are generated by script.
By "black lists" -- tests from the Internet
'Cause the Internet resources change rapidly and constantly, there's a possibility to see different pages instead of ones used for test after following the links from the table. But to see the actual pages used for tests you can see screenshots.This test is meant to show how ad blockers work in real life.
Images from other domains
Here we got 4 banners, physically stored on other domains (like www.apple.com or nbc.com), that do not have neither advertising dimensions, nor URL. 2 of them are buil-in and other 2 are generated by script.
