I swear.. that sucker was present last night... or else where would I come up with an "ad" if I didn't see it with my own eyes??? I actually did a screen capture but didn't feel like resizing it to fit the forum so I nuked it. Oh well, no ad today! (yes, I am sure I wasn't using IE!)

After downloading the first round beta of IE and uninstalling it within 20 minutes, I decided to go with the latest beta 7.0.5450.4 and I am slowly but surely converting.

Just went there to see if I could see it. I got the ad too. It's somewhat blocked but not completely. Here is the location.

Sorry this is going to stretch the page.
http://adsvr.namgmsp-admgt.com/banman.a ... geID=34025


The other part is located

http://adsvr.namgmsp-admgt.com/banman.a ... geID=24467

Bet that's some kind of ad server? hope this helps.

They may be rotating ads from different servers.

Try:

Code: Select all

*/adsvr.*
... should do it. Looks fine here.

Was you able to see it though Rick? Just wondering.


EDIT: PS is this a new ad server? Or just one set up for this site or something? Sorry so many questions. Just trying to learn as I go. :)

Actually, no, I didn't see it. I DID see that one the first time around with Adblock turned off .. but it was blocked when I turned it on. Because you and Rich both saw it though, I looked into it a little further and found a 3rd-party feed that may be rotating somehow by ANOTHER 3rd party feed. Afaict, they seemed to be fed from a 3rd-party subdomain that always starts with 'http://adsrv.'. (this is strictly a guess).

I checked the domain name out where the ad was (can't remember what it was called) and came up a 'null' on it. The subdomain '//adsrv.' would probably imply its intentions, so I'll block that and check it on and off tonite.

ps:
As of this writing I have not yet uploaded it. I'll check it out a little further to see if I can actually find a 'commonality'.

OK, I'll upload in a bit.

It's being served from a domain called:

Code: Select all

http://adsvr.namgmsp-admgt.com
.... the directory structure from that site keeps rotating even though the domain stays the same (that's different). That is probably why they were seen and then not-seen. Some of my generic-type filters probably allowed and disallowed the ads based on the particular address.

I was going to use the domain at first, but it looks a little "hokey". I figured it would probably just be better if I made a 'generic' subdomain filter instead.

*/adsvr.* :arrow:
... might catch other sites too. :wink:

Added and uploaded ... update regular EasyList
