EasyList Forum

I'm not sure .... All 3 of them were good in there own way: Daredevil: It is probably the most polished of the 3 and very well done visually, but doesn't really talk about it being a web browser. I would think that only people who actually already knew about Firefox would be the only ones who would ...

Some pretty good Firefox video ads ...

Watch them here:

I don't believe the web site that used to use them (sportsnet.ca) uses
them for ads anymore after introducing their new web site.
I haven't had any hits on that filter & I'm at that web site all the time.

OK, jr! Thanx for the update.

@pond hopper
see, there's another one .... my *_ads/* =only 6. And yet you have a bunch!

@IceDogg
After you listed your sites, I know why my */adlog.* hits a lot .... CNet/ZDNet uses them like 7 to a page. You must hit pretty good on them.

Mines */adframe* (2500 hits) with 4x the hits of the next highest. See, now my */adframe* is only 24 hits. I've mostly been in a lot of different forums since I started hit counting, so I'm sure that most of them have come from there. You really need someone who likes to travel around the web a lot...

@jr! Wow! Now THAT'S a count! I don't even have that one .... but it might be getting intercepted by another string. My biggest 2 hits are: */adlog.* *ad*.googlesyndication* (of course) both around 3500. I guess it depends where you go. If you visit the same sites a lot, of course you will have thei...

I don't normally forward graphics, so I can't comment on that. But I DO have one bug that is similar.

I include my logo in my signature. If I write a NEW message the signature with logo is intact. If I REPLY to a message it will add a signature but the logo disappears. ... it IS a bit odd.

I had to remove the @@|https://* whitelist entry from your EasyList filter in order to block an annoying ad. Within the past couple weeks, my broadband ISP (Road Runner cable) has started inserting banner ads in their web mail pages. The ads are sourced from advertising.com, but the *advert* entry ...

ps: I don't want any whitelisting filters. but @@|http://www.spreadfirefox.com/* and @@|https://* are fine. After some consideration, I have decided that the only whitelist I am going to add will be for "https" ... I have since removed the spreadfirefox one, but anyone who goes there can ...

I like your EasyList, whole list is awesome, it's very easy to understand, it's very effective and no false positives. Thank you. Like i said in other forum, it works very good when i surf on Finnish sites. I did see some ads (rare cases so far*), but it's easy to add own rules and it's easy to get...

Question 1: Why @@|http://www.spreadfirefox* is there without .com Oops. I didn't even realize that I truncated it THAT short. Actually, when I tried it the site still whitelisted fine ... adding it really doesn't make a difference though. But I will put the ".com" back in for recognition...

It seems the culprit is an outside ad company. The magic adblock filter is: *inetinteractive* ... it removes all the scripting and imagery EXCEPT for the drop-down menus themselves. It's late here so I'll try and check it out tomorrow to see if I can find out how to kill them. They are form boxes so...

Finally I am wondering why I have twice the filters of the subscription list. If I go to Adblock Plus Preferences, under filter rules all your filters are listed first, then my blocks follow and then 3 small lines (one filter subscription, one source and last status). After the Status, all the subs...

*/avatars/* is not working in most cases. The pictures of the avatars in the majority of forums are hosted in various picture hosting services and not in the forum server and are as follows: http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/2424/silverbullet2cv.gif Oh, you're not talking about forum members perso...

If you are going to boards like this one, probably just adding a string called: */avatars/* .... would do it. That would kill all of them here. I would imagine that most boards employ a similar default directory structure. As far as sound goes, I don't think Adblock parses embedded midi or wave file...

@ jr! Sorry man, I totally botched your post somehow. jr! originally said: "yeah, me too, but I'm always forgetting to do that." to which I replied: "I know .... just because you brought that up, I'm doing that right now. I've also added a few bookmarks since the last time."

Just copy the "bookmarks.htm" from your firefox profile to your portable profile ... that's how I did it.

- Did you ever wish you had your trusty, familiar Firefox browser with you when you are away from home? Try Portable Firefox. Portable Firefox is the perfect thing to put on a usb memory key and carry with you. You can use it on ANY pc ... just plug it in and start it up. It needs no installation. I...

I would like to help, but megaupload is a membership site of which I am not a member ... so I can't get to your problem page. I also cannot see a source code for it. This is definitely a SCRIPT initiation, so if you look at the SCRIPTS in your blockable list, you will probably find a SCRIPT that cal...

Oops ... sorry. I DID have that one in there ... musta 'backwrote' over it. I try to keep the filters consistent and have a tendency to do them on 2 different machines. Every now and then I will overwrite one filterlist with another forgetting that I had added something new on the one I overwrote. :...

The Adblock EasyList / EasyElement Filters Additions you'd like to see (related ONLY to the filters themselves). You can identify the culprit ad ... but it is more important if you leave a page link from where it came from. I'll do my best to accomodate any suggestions :twisted: ps: *GUEST POSTING ...

Ok you got it, Markie We went thru the EXACT same thing at work ... Tbird wouldn't work with Exchange. It was a bit strange if I remember ... I set the server name for INCOMING and OUTGOING, but could only receive mail and not send it. You need to enable POP or IMAP in the Exchange mail server. Then...

- I have been using the same profile since 0.7 also. I may have manually removed the 'memory' setting when I upped my memory to 1 gig .... and figured it wasn't that bad. Or maybe I was using one of the 1.5RC's and it really WASN'T that bad and I left it. Too many different machines. I can't remembe...

I just checked my usage ..... 29meg w 5 tabs open and all of my extensions enabled. That's not bad. I remember when it used to go up to 70/80 meg. I checke...

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!

You're Firefox must be 100 meg!!!!!

If you are trying to block something from a certain site, ask it here and I (or someone) will try to figure it out for you. Go ahead, it might be something I'll use in the EasyList.
