Legit Website Blacklisted, Shouldn't Be

Post by AudioValve »

Hello,

I am the owner of classicvalve.ca and while doing some webmastery, I noticed that my site is blocked in Opera by AdBlock, but not in Firefox :shock:

Unlike my FF plugin, Opera's doesn't show which filter or list is blocking what.

I would like my legit site removed from the block, please and thanks.

Cheers!

well, I see ... probably you enabled the social list only in opera

and images like this

Code: Select all

http://classicvalve.ca/images/slideshow/845_closeup_tumblr.jpg
are blocked by this filter:

Code: Select all

/images/*tumblr.jpg
so, my advice would be to rename these images.

Otherwise you should report at easylist support forum the issue, waiting for the authors to add an exception for your site, but it will take some time (first when the authors will add the exception, then 4-6 days for the lists to be updated in the users adblockers). So, it's much better to rename the pics.

Thanks for the advice!

Opera version is 30.0.1835.125
ABP version is 1.9 (version that came with Opera Stable)
Filter list in Opera:
- EasyList
- EasyPrivacy
- Malware Domains
- Fanboy's Social Blocking List

ABP version in FF: 2.6.9.1-signed
Filter list in FF:
- EasyList
- Popup Block List

I disabled Fanboy in Opera and my page started working again. Thank you for pointing that out! :D
