AccountOnline false positive [white]

Post by SgtPepper »

When doing online banking with Citi credit cards (redirects to accountonline.com), two false positives in EasyPrivacy renders the site unnavigable. They are https://www.accountonline.com/cards/svc/js/tracking.js and https://www.accountonline.com/cards/svc/js/util/hbx.js .

Quite some time ago, I wrote a GreaseMonkey script that defines recordClientSideClick() to fix this (just defines it as an nop-op function), as I thought it was a Firefox compatibility problem rather than EasyPrivacy. It gets the site working, but obviously stopping the false positive would be better (especially since that was the only thing I had GreaseMonkey installed for).

I've now added a whitelist entry in AdBlock that I thought you may want to include in EasyPrivacy so others don't have this problem. It is simply:

Code: Select all

@@|https://www.accountonline.com/cards/svc/js/*.js|
It can likely be improved, but it's what I used to get the site usable again.

Thanks,

Keith

Yes, that works.
