Hello there,
just a report about a "false positive":
The filter

Code: Select all

/cgicounter.
blocks counters on onlinehome.de (=arcor.de)
e.g.

Code: Select all

<img src="http://cgicounter.onlinehome.de/cgi-bin/dt?clsid=5fb81ca8f80754ecf02f031106847006">
used on my private homepage should show the current date but is blocked.

Kind regards
Helmut

That's intentional. Counters (especially centralised ones) are one form of visitor tracking,
and therefore completely within the scope of the tracking filter list - and one of the reasons
why those rules got their own list.
