Thanks, mapx. I did, but I don't see the abp icon in my status bar, it could be related to allowing third-party browser extension stuff. could you plz tell me where to find it in the "Internet Options"?

Do you start normally IE ? ( I mean not from some pinned app)
Do you see AdblockPlusEngine.exe process in your task manager ?

I understand that your status bar is already enabled, do you confirm ?

It's Done! Thanks, mapx.

Now how can I disable the annoying facebook, twitter, google plus, etc. sharing links that I'm seeing on almost every page across the web?

you can subscribe only 1 filters list for now (it's not as ABP for chrome / firefox where you can add more lists and custom filters)

anyway ... there is an workaround (copy patterns.ini already prepared with the lists you want from firefox to IE)
forum/viewtopic.php?p=87034#p87034

(for the social stuff you need to add fanboy's social list in firefox)
