Installed ABP Plus and it worked perfect .. Thanks :)

PS:- Why is Adblock more popular in the chrome store than ABP ?

repeat your test using my filters, keeping only easylist enabled

if still does not work, disable all other addons, keep only ABP, submit an issue report and then post here the report link
