Adbrite ads
Hi, I've been getting some AdBrite ads since using Adthwart and more recently with ABP for Chrome. When I used ABP on Firefox it always blocked them.
Page is http://mumble.sourceforge.net
It's somewhat random, I'd say that the ad shows up about 60% or 70% of the time I visit the page. It also happened with another page (that I don't recall the address now) with the same AdBrite ads. Can't pickup the element in easy create filter mode btw.

Re: Adbrite ads
Which filter lists are you subscribed to? Also, which Chrome version?
I tried to reproduce this issue but this ad is blocked reliably for me.

Re: Adbrite ads
Sorry, forgot to mention it.
Chrome 8.0.552.224
Filters:
- EasyList
- Fanboy's Español/Português supplement
- Recommended filters for Google Chrome
In FF 3.6 I use Fanboy's Main List and Fanboy's Español/Português supplement and it blocks it everytime.

Re: Adbrite ads
Yes, but Adblock Plus for Chrome isn't anywhere near as efficient as Adblock Plus for Firefox yet.
It seems that the cause of your issue is a timing problem - when I load the same page from a local server the adbrite script is blocked by Adblock Plus but it runs anyway. Seems to be a WebKit bug.
Edit: And now I cannot reproduce it any longer

Re: Adbrite ads
Ok, I got confused, the issue is actually pretty simple. This script loads too early, Adblock Plus doesn't have its data yet and cannot block it.
Re: Adbrite ads
The following filter can be added as work-around:
Unfortunately, I'm not sure there is another solution - we are fighting Chrome's architecture here.
Code: Select all

Re: Adbrite ads
ahhhh.. now I understand the randomness of it showing up.
Thanks for the input

Re: Adbrite ads
Would the filter adbrite.com##html also remove the unwanted content?
Re: Adbrite ads
No, it is an about:blank frame, the script writes dynamically into it.
