Here's a more preferred Softpedia link for the download.

Thanks for this. I'll try to boot into Windows and have a look myself later

Looks like it only works with IE and therefore, I won't be trying it.

I gave this a run and was fairly impressed. not quite as good as AdBlockPlus on Firefox, but definitely a nice find for IE users. RAM use is pretty low.
It does allow you to select which browsers (and IM/P2P) to have it work within.

It lists Bitcomet among the P2P, but I did not see any difference there.

No. It lists quite a few browsers, - Safari, Chrome, KMellon,
Lunascape, Maxthon, Firefox, Opera and a couple I had not heard of.

I gave it a run for a couple of hours too and was also impressed. Considering the current lack of free options for IE users, this should be well received.
