Automatic offline installation?

Post by kronflux »

I work in a computer repair shop, where we do a lot of computer sales and setups.
A lot of customers are now requesting that Adblock Plus be installed in their browsers before they get their unit.
Unfortunately our corporate network has an issue with the certificates of the adblock plus website, and it means we have to keep clicking the "proceed anyway" bits, or for firefox we have to accept the certificate every time.
It makes the installation of Adblock Plus a pain in the buttocks as well as taking a longer time.

Is there some way I can install Adblock Plus(with specific filter subscriptions) without visiting the Adblock Plus website every time?

Hi.

You can simply use the web stores:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... lock-plus/
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/deta ... cddilifddb
http://extensions.apple.com/details/?id ... GRYYZR985A
https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/ ... display=fr
http://www.iegallery.com/Addons/Details/16161

Please note however that the IE and Safari galleries unfortunately still serve some elderly stable versions, which can be updated manually or automatically when running them first.

Best regards,

Philip
