Yes I use them also, although as lifetimer I can manually disable adds.

Ad Block Plus is very useful. With it you can also block annoying drop down menu.

<Rant on>
It is beyond my comprehension why I can't get the option to turn that annoyance on or off at my will. Since when we slaves have no right to decide if we like something or not? Is SI getting revenue based on if I bring those annoying drop down menus up? Silly. Frequent requests for optional opt out were being ignored. Later we were told not to even bring this subject up any more. (this one really shows an arrogance and new spirit of new owners and workers here)
My first ban ever happened after being here over 12 years or so, after i responded in the same manner as dmitry treated us and our requests.
<Rant off>

Anyway, for anyone that want the option to switch drop down menu on or off at your will, you can use this until new owners/workers decide to tweak this and block our Ad Block Plus:

I am using Google Chrome and I have the Adblock Plus Extension. So I added the following to my Adblock Plus filters:

Problem solved! The "SubjectMarks" link works like it use to, with no drop down menu.
