The filter images.google.com##div#ImgCont > table[width="100%"]:first-child blocks text ads on images.google.com results, but not images.google.ca results for example (ie: http://images.google.ca/images?q=test ) I'd change it to include more domains, the other google filters have "goo...

Congratulations - Actually, not congratulations, but thank you. I know it's for the most part a thankless job that takes a lot of work and effort. Thank you for continuing the project and giving it so much of your time.

For my part, I'm going to try to show up here more often to help.

In the past there have been occasional efforts to remove unused filters, these will continue to happen occasionally I assume. I originally wrote a lot of the element filters and last year I went through them one by one, probably removing upwards of 25% of them outright. Long story short: The list sl...

I haven't been around here in quite a while and was saddened to hear of this. Rick was a great person who aided millions of people and will be sorely missed.

on the right column, down the page, there's a flash object which embeds text ads. Linked from http://widget.proximic.com/flash/proximic.swf

Yeah, I don't really care myself, just letting you know!

The filter .atwola. in easylist messes up messageboards.aol.com, saw it when I was looking around for the easyelement cleaning

Example: http://messageboards.aol.com/aol/en_us/ ... Connection

Example page http://www.northumberlandtoday.com/Arti ... x?e=966820 has lots of advertisements all over it, coming from kestrel.ospreymedialp.com

#*(boxAd) in EasyElement blocks the entire right column (most of which is non-advertisement) on this page

OpenOffice.org 3.0 is set to include a PIM app based on Mozilla Thunderbird with Lightning integrated, it'll be really interesting to see how that works out - sounds almost like they're just working on Thunderbird 3.0 and planning on bundling it though.

Heads up:
http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/ is completely broken by #*(ad_banner_top)

Should be fairly trivial to parse the filter list for domain names, get their ips, and spit out a list...

Heh, just a random new version download, I've already played with Celestia enough.

http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html

The google analytics filter from the tracking list prevents google earth from downloading when a user clicks on the button

I saw that! Just thought I'd register my opinion anyway.

I'm a little late on this but I might as well say I don't think this should be blocked I only actually went to this page to see 'why firefox is blocked' because it was linked to from somewhere else, but it just loaded up a blank page until i disabled abp. I think it's more valuable for users to be a...

Ah! I thought so.

Hey VF. How are ya doing? :D Truthfully? Annoyed because I just got my bike stolen. Otherwise good, I hardly ever remember to peek around here. Being up in the addons is only because of the amount of downloads ABP does. It HAS to rank you accordingly otherwise it would not be a very honest system n...

Nah, that's not so surprising, Adblock Plus has been up there in the recommended addons for a long time.

From personal experience, yes you can (although there's no way to automatically update it, though maybe you could write a script for that). Also I believe konqueror does support whitelisting, if you do @@somesite.com somesite.com will be whitelisted. I haven't used KDE or Konqueror in quite a while...

Example: http://www.shockwave.com/gamelanding/ai ... curity.jsp

Click 'play online' and the game will not come up unless adblock is disabled.

The site is too small for me to worry about that. Disagree, Rick. WINE is HUGE when it comes to Linux/*BSD users and perhaps even OS X users now. Certainly much bigger than some of the other websites in EasyElement. It's pretty minor and that could be a good reason to not bother with blocking it in...

Wow, good job to you both.

That said, would be interesting to see some benchmarks involving EasyElement.

Not to mention the security problems that have been fixed since Firefox 1.0 was released. If you keep using old versions like this, then you're surfing the 'net with a "Kick Me!" sign taped to your back. In fairness people using Debian stable are using a Firefox 1.0 with backported securi...

My first thought was 'Wow, that's a really minimal design, I like it, amusingly enough

Okay, now that's just amazing. It's nice to know that so many people benefit from my helping with the list.
