FF problem - not able to download filter lists

Post by user666 »

Hello.

I am using Ubuntu 15.10 and FF 45.01.

After re-installing ubuntu the last two days, the system is now nicely working again. Except for adblocker. Adblocker says it failed to download the subscribed filter lists. Therefore, of course, is unable to filter any ad.

Do you have any ideas?

I got the lists from other providers / websites. But I'd prefer to have easylist Germany, too. Just in case.
