The add-on also comes with a new navigation bar concept, combining everything into one box. It does this by replacing the address, search and find on page toolbar with the universal Quero box. You will love this concept once you get used to it, but it is also possible to just use the ad blocker of Quero. You can also use Quero to block ads in IE8.

I'm using Fiddler to see exact HTTP requests and add rules for a particular website and particular hosts, refresh, make sure inPrivate is on, and still the ad shows up sometimes from the address that *should* be blocked (I verify it in Fiddler).
