Adblocking with OM and Android?
When I had a Symbian phone I successfully installed an adblocker (well, a URL filter actually) to the Opera Mobile data files. Now I'm on Android I want to do the same but cannot locate any suitable file to put the 'urlfilter.ini' into. The OM files and operating system seem well hidden on Android.Can anyone help on this one?
Here's two ways, one specifically for Opera Mobile: http://lifehacker.com/5851038/how-to-block-ads-in-android-browsers-and-apps

Thanks for that - seems to answer exactly. Couldn't find the right bit in opera:config!!
EDIT - applied and works a treat! Thanks again

Blocking of URLs with urlfilter.ini is good but I'd like to block html elements too. Please refer to the URL below for the sample blocking rules:

(See the bottom table for element blocking)
I can't seem to block elements on Opera Mobile the way the site explains for Opera Desktop. Is this possible on Opera Mobile for Android?
