If one disables JAVASCRIPT in webfiltering then most of the web is borked.

    Hi, 

    One could request that Sophos add this to the web filter under advertising or whatever.

    Re disabling JavaScript:
    I use 'NoScript' in my browsers, which can block (blacklist or whitelist) individual sites. 
    Blocking addthis.com/.net should do it.

    Also, I don't understand why the article says that AdBlock+ wouldn't be able to block it.
