Re: Google Talk breaks with EasyList

I am unable to reproduce the issue in Firefox where there is a link with the extension to file a bug report. I came across another forum post that appears to report the same issue: https://adblockplus.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8084 I was under the impression that restricting style rules to www.goog...

Re: Toronto Star

The home page and a few other articles I have tested work for me when using EasyList and EasyPrivacy. Is the a specific page on which there is an issue? Alternatively, does disabling each of the subscriptions in turn indicate the origin of the problematic filter?

Re: EasyList without rules for adult sites - porn blocker?

The standard version of EasyList specifically filters out adverts that appear on adult websites - the "content" is still displayed. EasyList without rules for adult websites does not specifically remove adverts from adult websites, but may do so incidentally due to the presence of general ...

Re: disqus comments on independent.co.uk

Wladimir, no, I could not reproduce the issue (I indicate this with the "reported" acknowledgement in the commit comment), but agreed with your deduction and therefore removed the filter.

Dognito, I'm glad we were able to help.

Re: Google chart editor breaks

No filters from EasyList register as active when viewing the domain in Firefox. I therefore suspect that the issue may be with the extension itself and will post a message in the Adblock Plus for Chrome forum about the problem.

Re: CNN Ads

It would appear that Adblock Plus for Chrome is unable to remove static objects in addition to items loaded by an object: the advert on the right side of the page should be blocked by the filter _300x250_ from EasyList. I would therefore advise that you wait until the browser permits extensions to b...

Re: stickam video not loading

Adblock Plus can't really influence video players that implement a delay even if there is no advert loaded (or, in other words, poorly coded video players). I'm afraid that you'll just have to wait the sixty seconds until the content loads.

Re: CNN Ads

Adblock Plus for Chrome is not currently able to block videos; when it is, the advert reported should no longer be loaded.

What is the address of the advert featured in the screenshot?

I have not added the suggested filter due to the lack of effect that it has on the page, but have committed a rule for a large empty element at the side of the page.

Frankly, I don't think it's worthwhile adding digitalhome.ca###bb to EasyList. The rule only hides a small section of the page (the advertisements have been removed by other filters) and the element is located away of the primary content (the articles listed in the left column) and therefore scarcel...
