Ancestry site blocked? Bad header error

Post by Figi4 »

When I have ABP on I cannot access Ancestry.com at all. I get a Bad Request Invalid Header error. When I disable ABP and refresh the page it loads fine. Turn ABP back on, again it won't load and gives me the error page. :cry:

Is there something i can do so that I can have both? Thank you.

I'm using Chrome btw, it doesn't happen on the Puffin browser.

Of course it doesn't happen on Puffin, because it uses its own proxy, and none of the proxied URLs would match anything in ABP.
There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.

Didn't realize that, just saw that it was another browser to use on my tablet.
