Forwarding an issue report: I'm having a major problem with dreadlockforums.ning.com I will assume that '*.ning.com' all have the same layout. the problem stems from the flash-based comments. AdBlockPlus blocks: The toolbar the "add-comment" action the "x" or delete comment actio...

Forwarding an issue report: I have a problem related with two modules TPajaxtabs and TPlastjobs. You can find the issue in the http://www.beginyouridea.com The Adblock Plus 1.1.2 is blocking this two modules, this is related with the line ~jobs.wa.gov.au##.advert when this is active block my site, n...

No problem (yes, I got this PM).

It does.

Sent Lanik a new script to generate malware domains list. Once it is replaced on the server everything should go back to normal.

Yes, I am looking into this. Malware Domains does use a checksum and it seems to be valid - my guess is that there is some charset mixup here. Edit : Adblock Plus 1.1.1 reports a wrong checksum as well. Good, at least this isn't an Adblock Plus regression. Edit2 : Yes, charset mixup it is. dailynews...

Forwarding a report from a user: on http://www.thestreet.com/ the "Get Quotes" search box is broken by the filter "/js/ads/*" that is blocking "http://www.thestreet.com/js/ads/adplacer.js".

Forwarding a bug report:

http://www.accuweather.com

When selecting a video weather report, the box shows black and never plays.
When adblock plus is disabled, video weather report plays after a video ad
plays.

Yes, that is caused by the tab being displayed/hidden. However, I have no idea why that particular Flash movie reacts to it in such a way (it really shouldn't even notice, its position doesn't change).

Easily: all you have to do is blocking access to adblockplus.org via plain HTTP (not HTTPS) for yourself and forget to update the subscription URL.

Heh, works fine for me as well. Turns out I had a version of EasyList that was one month old.

Trailer video on http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/08/ ... m-trailer/ doesn't play unless I disable the filters ".illumenix.com/" and ".tubemogul.com/", didn't have time to look into this any further.

Forwarding a mail from a user: Going back to the problem, I ask you to find out why the Easy list subscription blocks the widget on http://www.hotklix.com The code underlying our widget is <script type="text/javascript" src="http://affiliates.quintura.com/embed/?topic_id=4448&view...

Forwarding a false positive report: It seems that sprint.com is serving some of its content via atdmt.com. Disabling ".atdmt.com/" makes the page show up correctly. Maybe a case for a domain exception?

Anyone using ADP and EasyList knows the risk that websites may not display correctly You would be surprised. What's worse, many people aren't even aware that the issue is with EasyList - they report a bug in Adblock Plus. And I can't blame them, they install Adblock Plus to have an ad-free experien...

For reference: http://www.mozdev.org/source/browse/adb ... 4;r2=1.275

How about changing ".itor.us/" into ".itor.us/$third-party"? They aren't a user tracking service, it's a service to monitor website uptime - one that I use for adblockplus.org as well. Inserting their script into webpages is an optional part, the service is very useful without it...

This was reported as https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483344 - the videos on clarin.com (there is one on the homepage, at the right) don't play with EasyList. The problem is that the video requests http://www.clarin.com/shared/v10/swf/tvplayer/um/publicidad.xml which is being blocked by ...

Forwarding a report from the webmaster of guitaradoptions.com: the "Live support/Leave a message" button is being blocked by ".iad.liveperson.net/" filter in EasyList (it is powered by a script from server.iad.liveperson.net). Even if Adblock Plus is disabled on his site, the but...

Got this in mail: I’m an affiliate of http://www.hotelscombined.com, if I open my private branding page with adblock activated the images from hotelscombined.com don’t appear. This is the link http://www.hotels.jewisheurope.org/ For me, the problem is http://cdn.datahc.com/Styles/Style.ashx?affiliat...

No. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

That would be a rather disruptive experience for users. It would be better to keep the rules that match on many sites. As to the others - yes, those should be converted into site-specific rules (if necessary at all).

Reminds me: What was the rationalization behind merging EasyList and EasyElement? I know that there are a few element hiding rules which hide advertisement where outright blocking is not possible but otherwise the two lists had different purposes. Not really, the two approaches complement each othe...

I don't think that adding the element hiding rule I mentioned there is a good idea. As already mentioned elsewhere, global element hiding rules slow down the browser - and this one is for a rare scenario.

See http://adblockplus.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4080 - it seems that an application called Hotspot Shield ( http://hotspotshield.com/ ) is injecting ads from box.anchorfree.net into every webpage. box.anchorfree.net isn't currently blocked by EasyList but I guess it should be. Oh, and I found this ...

Forwarding a user report: macnn.com##div[id="leaderboardn"] causes a layout issue on macnn.com main page, "macnn toolbox" on the top right overlaps with reviews/electronista/etc box.

I know that http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=1 is evil but I would like to check on that report occasionally

Can we change ".hitslink.com/" into ".hitslink.com/$third-party"?

The following element hiding rule hides the entire content on http://www.livejournal.com/openid/ : ##*[class^="ad"][class*="kyscraper"]:not([id="boardsInner"]) The content is wrapped in this block: <div id='content-wrapper' class='adtype-skyscraper' style='margin-right:...

Right, this is the page that has problems: http://www.washingtonpost.com/local

RichardB, can you check that you have the latest Flash version installed? You can do that by going to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/. Just a guess why you are seeing that issue but nobody else does.
