Adblock Plus “typo correction” feature adds affiliate IDs to links

So what's a good alternative (Firefox)? I'm using GlimmerBlocker, but due to being a proxy, it can't filter HTTPS pages. Adblock Edge looks like a decrapified fork of Adblock Plus.

I use noscript as well as adblock plus.

Ghostery. Can't recommend it highly enough; also works on Chrome, Safari, Opera and IE.

I think you are talking about AdBlock, Adblock Plus is different.
