There's no "block" tab on the big Sonic ad. I've been able to get rid of most flash ads, but some show no "block" - do I have something configured wrong?
Thanks!!

One other thing....I notice the smaller flash ads many times lack a block filter. For example at
www.drudgereport.com I can get a block tab on the large flash ads at the top of the page - and they're gone. But the smaller ones down into the page - no block tab. I must be doing something wrong?

No it's not you. It's the same issue as this thread:
http://adblockplus.org/forum/viewtopic. ... 0742#10742
Read Wladimir's post to understand what's wrong and the solution.
For the
www.drudgereport.com site, I'll write to you how to block it.
1. go to site.
2. press ctrl+shift+B
3. in the search menu write "frame"
4. click on each address until you find the ad you want to block. ABP will make the firefox window focus to the items in that menu when you click on their address.
5. when you find the ad (in my case
http://harvest8.adgardener.com/daisies. ... 1-2c1(...))
Just right click and block.
In this case it's more smart to block with this code:
Anyway I recommend you to install Easylist and Easyelement from here instead: abp://subscribe/?location=http%3A%2F%2Feasylist.adblockplus.org%2Feasyelement+easylist.txt&title=EasyElement%2BEasyList
They take good care of both those sites.
