>Also, instead of saying "the latest version," perhaps we should mention the specific version number (1.0.1).
Whoops. Well, in that case perhaps provide a link to the specific addons.mozilla.org URL where Adblock Plus can be downloaded?

Re: ABP filter docs: XMLHttpRequest [fixed]
When you "fixed" the filter, you mistakenly typed two dollar signs into it ( @@.rte.ie/ads/video/ads-config.js?$$xmlhttprequest ). This is somehow causing the filter to not work.

ABP filter docs: XMLHttpRequest [fixed]
The "Writing Adblock Plus filters" documentation page ( http://adblockplus.org/en/filters ) says that the parameter used to restrict a filter to XmlHttpRequests is $xmlhttprequest, but in the thread about "RTE.ie Video Player" ( http://forums.lanik.us/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=282...

Re: battleon.com
I apologize that one of the more experienced users has not attended to this topic earlier. Anyway, I will say the following: I think you probably have a good case for getting those filters removed, as rick752 generally has a policy of not blocking ads for "first-party" products/services. H...

Re: Google referer amok
@rick752 and other experts: Could this potentially be fixed by adding $third-party to the filter? (I'm not very familiar with how this tracking string is used; I'm just trying to make sure this issue gets due attention. I am not the same person as the guest above.)

Just one part of the website you might have forgotten about: The "Filters' last-modified info" page ( http://easylist.adblockplus.org/easylist-modified.htm ) still has separate sections for EasyList and EasyElement (which of course display the same content now that the latter redirects to ...

Re: htt and http:/ [n/a]
As I mentioned in another thread, this type of corruption can sometimes happen randomly when a filter update is downloaded, and the suggested fix is to force a manual update (Filters -> Update all subscriptions in the Adblock Plus window) as soon as you notice the problem. (I don't mean to be saying...

Re: What's up?? It's suddenly unusable!! [n/a]
Just a quick note that I've had this type of corruption happen to me once due to apparent Internet connection or server glitches during an automatic update of the EasyList. The solution was to force Adblock Plus to "Update all subscriptions." I don't think there are any server problems tha...

I'm not sure how necessary/effective the element filters mentioned above are, given that the EasyElement string #div(class=ad) seems to hide the contents of the ads anyway. I have personally whitelisted the site out of the "goodness of my heart," even though what I just said makes the whit...

I noticed that the front page of the EasyList website mentions ChinaList and Corset as subscriptions suggested for use with the EasyList.

I don't exactly see how that article about FBI activity relates to the "Digg it" buttons themselves, which I feel shouldn't be blocked. If what that article says is true, wouldn't the proper filter (for the ABP Tracking Filter list) have something to do with the domain "y.digg.com&quo...
