That get's it installed. But then it doesn't do anything!
Weeks and weeks after installing it along with Firefox 3 (and agreeing

With a new window,
Tools > Adblock Plus
brings up a preference window and that invites me to tell it what to do!
How should I know?

It's simple: I paid attention to the onscreen messages during
installation. ; )
