Not sure we do have a fix. If I've understood this correctly, it looks like they've changed tactics. I'm seeing sponsored ads on segmentnext.com with EasyList, EasyPrivacy, AakList, Malware Domains, and Adblock Warning Removal List enabled as well as the custom filters shown above. Looking into the page source and doing a little digging, it appears that the div class has been changed to gibberish.

For example, on this page: http://segmentnext.com/2015/11/15/fallo ... hip-guide/

I see trashy ads at the bottom pushing 'steriod alternatives' and fad diets. Digging into the page the closest thing to a root div class is "<div class="e09n4ka gbqfqwbypvr">" followed by a Matryoshka doll of other divs with gibberish classes. Refreshing the page replaces the chunk of gibberish at the front with a new chunk - my second attempt got me <div class="zd84twth gbqfqwbypvr">, so this could perhaps be filtered out with the latter chunk, but that looks semi-random as well.

I've already added the three filters listed earlier in the thread to my filter list, and should be blocking image_holder, label_box, and mdeyheadline_, but I still see these "sponsored links". I've attempted to write my own filter using these examples as a template and filtering out _gamo_holder, but this doesn't seem to fix the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Sure enough, that did it.

Now to see how much damage something like class$="_box" does to the rest of the web. :3

Works. But it won't be merged, so it's pointless. :\

no, it's very useful for those who really want to remove the yavli crap. It's no difference between easylist filters and custom filters.
