katherine-jenkins-international.com [fixed]

Post by Wladimir Palant »

Got a mail from an EasyList user:
The legitimate ad-free and hugely popular web site http://www.katherine-jenkins-international.com/ has 2 main web pages blocked because of the file name "banner" by the rule .com/banner$subdocument
Those pages perfectly legitimate are:
http://www.katherine-jenkins-internatio ... banner.htm and
http://www.katherine-jenkins-internatio ... iframe.htm

By blocking those pages, the whole site becomes unusable.

I had a similar filter. It caused a FP, too.

no issues here, but then again filtering "/banner" is bound to cause false positives.

Added to EL due to this site: http://www.freeworldgroup.com/ (pvt: search for "freeworldgroup").

I have removed that string from the EasyList and created an element-hide for the freeworldgroup site instead.
