Q. I've been hearing rumblings that Facebook might start charging a monthly subscription fee to keep and use a profile. Is this true, or just another unfounded rumor?
A. No. Sites like Facebook and Myspace make tons of money from advertisements alone. A subscription fee would only turn away both current and potential users. There would really be no need to them to charge users.

A. It's just a thing you make and you can put it on your blog or website. It's like a little advertisement for your facebook profile :) Pretty useless if you ask me. it doesn't do anything except let people visiting your website to find you on facebook easier. Nothing about security.
How do I remove all these commercials off of my facebook wall?
Q. whenever i sign into facebook, all of these random ads load up on my wall. they have nothing to do with facebook. all they do is slow my computer down, because most of time they are videos. i'm very reluctant to even check my facebook nowadays just because of all of this spamming ads crap. it also happens to my mother and father on the same computer.

A. Using firefox install the adblock plus, add on.
in internet explorer it is a whole different issue.
IE8 actually contains a great Ad blocking feature built-in, it's called "InPrivate Filtering". The InPrivate Filter (enabled by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+F) is intended to block content that may potentially share your information; thankfully advertisements are one such example of said content.
the InPrivate Filter is 'smart' in the sense that it can and will (if enabled) automatically detect content which appears with a high frequency on websites that you visit. In this regard, the Filter learns as you use the web and can detect what is an advertisement or of similar content, and take action accordingly. By entering the 'Manage Addons' window, you can select how many websites a piece of content must show up on before it is flagged, at which point you can then determine whether you want to block or allow such content.
Given the functionality of the InPrivate Filter, it seems that all that is required is a "Subscription List" containing the locations of advertisements for the filter to function as other Adblock applications. This is similar to a "Block List" in Adblock Pro and equivalent software. With such a list, it should be possible to simply block certain locations outright without relying on IE to learn from your browsing habits.
With regards to a subscription list that will block advertisements outright without having to 'learn' your browsing habits,
while in the process of searching for such. I stumbled across this link where someone has compiled an XML file of the blocked URL's from Adblock Plus. : http://bit.ly/47gPrQ
In order to Import these URL's into the InPrivate Filter, you must enter your "Manage Addons" window, accessible via Tools > Manage Addons. Click the InPrivate Filtering button, followed by Import and then locate the XML file.
The result should be IE8 blocking content from said providers outright, without the need to learn via your browsing habits. Doing so has blocked about 99% of the advertisements I see while browsing with IE8.

Then add the registry dword found in Neowin:-
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Internet Explorer \ Safety \ PrivacIE
DWORD "StartMode" value 1 (hex).
then starting Internet Explorer (even without InPrivate browsing mode) the InPrivate Filtering will be automatically started without having to be enabled every time the browser is started.
