Hello everybody,
I'm a long time user of AdBlock plus and I have experienced something strange today: While trying to access the Austrian Website of our company (https://www.next-kraftwerke.at/) the website was unusable because all images and image-related content was blocked. In testing with my colleagues we found out that facebook was only partially and instagram not at all usable.
As this is a matter of great importance not only for us, I suggest you check your recent updates!
Not only our websites are inacessible - nearly all websites are affected, too!

Re: URGENT: AdBlock plus makes Websites unusable
Can confirm, am encountering this as well.
Using Adblock version 3.32.1.
Chrome Version 68.0.3440.106
Tried restarting my computer, tried clearing my cache. No dice.
In fact I think restarting my computer made it slightly worse.
Something changed very recently, as I was not encountering this issue a few hours ago.
Edit: Facebook for example has at present 287 things being blocked, and I'm not sure what they are as there's no easy way to read what is.

Ok if you disable easylist, works. But I don't think this is an effective solution. In this new update they have added something that affects many users and would have to be fixed.pholtos wrote:That fixed it, thanks.mapx wrote:force an update for easylist list

Updating the list fixed it, but this came a little harsh and I think many users may be struggling and calling their ISP
