Can't Block Certain Domain (On Newgrounds)

Post by Toodles »

ABP Version: 1.9.3
Chrome Version: 46.0.2490.71
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
Filters: AdBlock Warning Removal List, Easylist


When visiting newgrounds.com I get vertical banner ads that block the entire sides of the screen, and a friend gets that along with normal horizontal banners. The domain of the ads is mmo123.co (no other ads appear on the site). When I try to "Block Element" the page freezes. A friend waited and was able to unfreeze but I waited 5 minutes and it was still frozen.

I tried all of the filters below but none of them work. I can copy link address and add the individual ad links to the filter myself, but they seem to have a thousand different ads, so it's not helping.

mmo123.co
||mmo123.co
||mmo123.co^
mmo123.co/*

Ditto, same just happened to me on watchcartoon. More importantly, for the future, how does one decipher what to block? I went to blockable items, I tried inspecting-elements, nothing seemed to be the thing to block.

The filter doesn't work on Newgrounds anymore. However I was able to block the ads by waiting about 2-5 minutes after using block element to click the ad. The page eventually unfreezes. But you need to do this for EACH INDIVIDUAL AD. When you refresh there will be more, but they stay away once you block each instance. You should never see the same picture twice.

What the ads appear to be doing is putting in a ridiculously long link (after blocking it and going to the ABP settings to look at the link, I was able to scroll to the right for an entire minute with no end in sight) that causes ABP to freeze up. And for some reason the domain itself can't be blocked through ABP even directly.

Impressive. I knew someday they'd find a way. Though I wonder why these ads aren't displaying on my other computer.
Also, can't we just block the intro wildcard to the urls? Or is ABP just choking to death on trying to even read the url?

Ads are still there. Different ones than before with that filter, too!

Here is a screenshot of the page and url bar. The ads are on the left and right edges, and they are also different from before but still there nonetheless.

The filter you posted removed the background entirely but had no effect on the ads. The ads actually overlap that part of the background.
As for the background image are you referring to bg.jpg? If so this is the url I found there: http://www.watchcartoononline.com/wp-co ... ges/bg.jpg
