SpotifyKiller - Spotify Ad Blocker
Simple Ad Blocker for Spotify
THIS PROGRAM DOESN'T WORK AT THE MOMENT!
Spotify is now distributing ads over their own servers, so
there is no point in blocking the external ones. Maybe I will
come up with a new program that gets around that, but as I
see it, there is no way to exploit the firewall in any way to
achieve that. The next version will have to rely on a program
running in the background. This program is still available for
download, but it doesn't do you much good. Maybe if you
have a older version of spotify.

SpotifyKiller is a simple ad blocker for Spotify
that automatically removes all visual and audible
Ad's from the free Spotify application on Windows.
The principle is very simple, SpotifyKiller blocks
all the ip's from the servers Spotify gets it's ad's from.
This is a pure windows application, and it uses the
windows firewall, so the program does not have to
run in the background, you run it once, enable
SpotifyKiller and as long as your Firewall is turned
on, you will never have to worry about Spotify ad's
again.
I wrote the program in C#, the source is provided in the
download section, as well as all the ip's it is blocking,
so you can manually insert it in to any firewall you wish.
The ip's are only blocked for the Spotify application.
Since they are using Google's ad services, globally
blocking the Google ip's would block all the Google,
youtube, etc... servers, so if you insert it manually,
make sure that the firewall rule is specifically added
for Spotify.

After running SpotifyKiller restart Spotify
in order for it to work.
