Just click the link in the list of subscriptions: Then ABP options will automatically open with all the information filled out.

If you do wish to add a subscription manually, you need to use the bare http:// or https:// URL; abp: links are meant to be clicked on, not pasted in.

i play with it before asking btw... i did click on the filter subscriptions and NOTHING open like it does in firefox, what wrong in here

Maybe that was added in the dev/experimental builds and isn't yet in the stable version of ABP...

copy the URL
right click ABP icon

@vinny86

this way i know and already mater it , the thing is when u add this Specific filter (easy privacy) it doesn't get updated like all other manualy added filter , in matter of fact i cant even know if its working or not....

OK, vinny86 gave a fairly good explanation, except that the link you need to copy is the one to view the list, not the abp: subscription link.

10x u all for the help BUT i found ad block works much better with any subscriptions out there , In addition its region blocking (right click in page) is much more strong and Accurate אישמ ABP

[vinny86]

ABP uses lesser resources and doesn't "hang" pages. That's my pitch for ABP
Install the development version from my signature.
It will be released with chrome 17

owww i never know there is ABB new build
10x vinny86 i am using it and its FAR more good than than the "stable" release.

just out of Curiosity , how BP is compare to ad muncher when come to esources and doesn't "hang" pages ?

[vinny86]

Have not tried Admuncher
But i think ABP is the best !

[demoneye]

I know one feature that is in ad muncher and not (yet) implemented in ABP , and its removing adv from a video (like in news channel) , i hope one day it wil be added


many 10x VINNY86 you much light my way

Actually ABP experimental (much like ABP for Firefox) can remove advertisements from within videos; you just need to add the proper filters or have a subscription that includes them.

Still, AdMuncher (and other filtering proxies, like the free Privoxy and Proxomitron) can modify the HTTP response in ways that ABP (which focuses on the request) cannot, like pulling out text links or even individual words.
