Introduction
MultiZilla offers a powerful way to block most types of unwanted content, such as Flash movies (adverts), Javascript, stylesheets, frames etc.
The screenshots on this page are reduced in size and have a limited quality; they are provided as examples only and may vary from release to release. Please note that other operating systems and browser themes might also affect the layout and colors.
The icons down the left hand side indicate the different types of content that can be blocked by the Content Blocker. These will be described below.
The cookie manager lets you view the websites that can store cookies on your computer and block those that you wish to. There are a number of buttons along the top of the manager that give you control of the manager. Apart from the Session button, these buttons are the same for all managers and will be described below.
When you open this manager, the text bar along the top will be pre-filled with the domain of the site that you were on when you opened the manager, but you can change it to any other domain.
In all managers of the Content Blocker, you can select multiple items by holding down the Ctrl key and left-clicking.
From here you can control various settings for cookies. These bring together settings found in different SeaMonkey preference panels.
The image manager can be used to block images. You can either block images from a specific domain by typing it into the text box below the buttons and pressing the Add button or use more powerful regular expression matching to match any URL.
Depending on your setting for the acceptance policy (above) this is either a blacklist of images, or a whitelist. Each entry in the list is comma-separated and behaves as a Regular expression. So this can be used to block or allow a large group of sites and finer control on a per-site basis can be provided by the main window.
