Social Bookmarks("addthis"), how to remove?
I have searched high and low on the Internet to figure out how to disable these social book marking buttons. They are often placed in very annoying locations on web pages causing pop ups to appear over text I'm reading as I move my pointer to some location or other.

I want to disable all social bookmarking buttons on all web pages I visit, completely. I do not want to completely disable scripts or java, just those annoying buttons. I've tried using Ad Muncher to block the links, but it is not 100% successful.

Help would be appreciated.


My system is:
OS: Windows XP sp2
Browser, main: Opera, latest build
Browser, secondary: Firefox

I see that here on this page but I use Firefox with NoScript so it blocks the java script from "addthis".

Your need to setup noscript for all the sites you go to that need java script rights but once you do that you can export the the list and save time setting it up again on another PC or profile because you just import the list.
