I usually have several windows running at a time, and every once in a while a website would have audio ads with "MAKE MONEY ONLINE 5000 DOLLARS A MONTH" which is very annoying while I am listening to music. Is there a way to disable all types of audio playing from the browser in Google Chrome?

Chrome doesn´t have an ad block like Mozilla, but you can use privoxy, which most likely will solve your problem.

Google recently added extensions to Chrome, so it has the program that cannot be said now, but I think you need the beta version of Chrome to use it.

regular chrome has extensions now which includes ad-block. just update to the newest version of chrome (wrench icon - > about google chrome -> update, or just google it). then go to extensions and search for ad-block or just hit most popular.

I do have ad block but certain sites I want to go to (flash games, etc) won't allow you to play unless you disable, and then if you do that the stupid sound ads come in.
