Blocking web-page adverts in a container
Forum member Tenoch reported that "Pup-Advert-Blocker" (in the
"Internet" menu category) does not work when run Firefox in a
container ("www" icon on desktop):

The "dunfell" icon runs a full isolated desktop, and
Pup-Advert-Blocker should work there.
I have fixed so that /etc/hosts gets copied into every container
at startup.That will be in the next release.
But, as I mentioned in the forum, replying to Tenoch's post, The
"Mvps.org" choice in Pup-Advert-Blocker doesn't work.
Pup-Advert-Blocker is a very old application, created by
sc0ttman, found it in the old forum:

I will need to fix the PET, either take out "Mvps.org" or find a
replacement.
