These are just a few sites I use regularly and as of yesterday ads started showing up.

Adblock Plus isn't working for me
Re: Adblock Plus isn't working for me
Hi @thirdeye42!
Thanks for bringing this to our attention! We'll get this reported to the filter list team for investigation and resolution. In the meantime, can you confirm which filter lists you are using with Adblock Plus?
Thanks

I tried to use the spoiler tag so that the images didn't take up so much space but it didn't work.

Same thing here...
Re: Adblock Plus isn't working for me
@thirdeye42 I wasn't able to reproduce on my end in Firefox. Can you try selecting English as your filter list language and adding Easylist to your subscriptions here subscriptions#type_ads. Let me know if that changes anything. That's the only difference in the settings I have selected.
@minujegin Can you also let us know which URLs produce ads for you? A screenshot of your filter lists is also helpful. We look forward to your follow up!

Re: Adblock Plus isn't working for me
I've noticed a similar problem that started about the same time (last Sunday,the 7th). It started with Yahoo when ads weren't blocked in the mail list and some began appearing in the margins.
Then a day or so later it had spread to You Tube, with video ads being injected into running programs!
Today (the 13th) it had spread to other sites, with ads interpolated in text in stories, banners at the top of the screen, and lots of ads on the right margin. It's as though I don't have Adblock Plus activated at all (but it says I do).
I reported these every day now for about 5 days, and gave my e-mail address, but I've heard nothing and the problem is getting worse! Has Adblock Plus been hacked or what?

Follow-on to the post immediately above: I tried subscribing to Easylist (subscriptions#type_ads) as suggested above, updated all my filters, and it now seems to be working! Thanks!
