Q: Adblock for Chinese websites?
Ok so I've been trying to watch TV shows on Sohu, and every time you open a video, there's a whole minute of unskippable ads that you HAVE to sit through before you can watch whatever you picked.
So every episode, I have to see the same god damned ads, or worse, if I forgot which episode I watched last the previous day, I have to click on a random video, watch 1 min of ads, watch 5 seconds of that episode to see whether I've seen it or not, and then try again. Oh, and the video player is shit and sometimes just stops in the middle of the video to either go to the next episode, or just crashes, so you have to reload the page, and again, try to remember which episode you were watching (read above).
It gets old really, really fast.
Please, tell me, is there any kind of software/addon to remove those freaking ads?

No, I don't believe there is. That's the big reason I hate going on youku.com because of that very reason. They always show that pizza commercial that I can't skip. I go to Youtube.com instead...much better. There are some videos I can't skip there sometimes too but for the most part after 5 seconds I can skip it.
Go to the AdBlock options. Add ChinaList.
To clarify: Firefox Button > Add-ons > Extensions > AdBlock Plus > Options > Filter Preferences > Add Filter Subscription > ChinaList + EasyList.
