Installation
https://adblockplus.org/devbuilds/
Changes
- Added new filter composer dialog that is opened to add a new filter
- Added hidden preference extensions.adblockplus.usefiltercomposer to choose between filter composer and preferences dialog for adding of new filters (this preference might be removed later)
- Blockable items: Changed default action for blocked items to “add exception rule” instead of “edit filter”
- Fixed: Subscriptions are sometimes loaded from browser cache
- Added hidden preference extensions.adblockplus.savestats to allow turning off hit statistics (useful if patterns.ini is put into a version control system)
- Firefox 1.5, Thunderbird 1.5 and SeaMonkey 1.0 are no longer supported
- Flock 1.2 is supported now
- Cleaned up some backwards compatibility hacks
- Removed ancient drag&drop handling code (not discoverable and not advertised anywhere)
Known issues
- Filter composer should warn if Adblock Plus is disabled
- Filter composer should have a help text for “custom pattern” field
- Filter composer won’t work in Firefox 2
- Clicks on the status bar icon are ignored
