Here's how to remove it completely

Uninstalling Adblock Plus for Android is similar to any other app you have downloaded:

Navigate to Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage applications (on devices running Android 4.x, Settings > Apps).
Scroll through the list of apps to find the one you'd like to uninstall.
Tap on the app you'd like to uninstall.
Tap "Uninstall".

Post by phllanx »

For root use will Uninstalling revert transparent proxy to whatever it was?

This setup seems to break TorGuard Lite (commercial vpn trafficking)

Hey guys!

Our team is trying to understand why users want this app, and whether we can do anything to Adblock Browser to address these needs.
Would be highly appreciated if you could take 5 minutes to answer some questions.
Please send me a PM in case you are interested.

Cheers,
