Disabling ABP and filters on CW TV & Forbes, still sees ABP

Post by bwallace95 »

Both CW TV video & Forbes request I disable my ad blocker and refresh. I disable ABP on the sites and even uncheck all filters. It still requests I disable my ad blocker. Latest version of Firefox and Windows 10 with all updates applied. Any possible solutions

Thank You,

I tried adding the cw filter you listed as a custom filter. Maybe I did it wrong. I took a screen shot of what I added. But I see no way on this board to attach images stored on a local PC :(
The same results. I even went into Firefox Options and disabled the ADP extension there and closed and restarted firefox. The CW site still sees the ADP extension. On the same PC I can open Chrome browser that does not have ADP installed, it works just fine on CW videos.

Thanks

- there are 2 filters for cwtv, so you have to see 2 rows in the custom filters section
- be sure disabling / removing all other blocking addons

Thank You. I finally figured out the problem. It was not ABP. CW must have redid their anti ad block filters and now recognizes the anti-tracking features of Blur as an Ad Blocker, which it is not.

Thanks Again, ABP is great software, I tell all my clients that use Facebook to install it.
