Update: Adjusted to new site style

This has two purposes: a) to block ad spaces, and b) to clear some non-essential elements from article and blog viewing (article tools, related article links, digg icons etc.) to give more focus to the article/post in question (I get distracted very easily).

If you only want adblocking, see the code comments - they'll tell you what to delete.

Thanks. Nicely done.
For a subscription site, they have a lot of extraneous graphics.
A question though...
through this script, are the elements downloaded and then hidden or have they just been blocked from being downloaded?
