new pandora ads?

Post by skwrl »

Hey
I'm using Adblock Plus with EasyList and Fanboy's Adblock List. Pandora hasn't given me any ads ever since I started using ABP until a couple days ago. I get this localized ad for where I live, and it comes up in my song list as any song would, only except I can't skip it. And it keeps playing the same ad every 5 songs or so. I keep updating both lists and went ahead and got Adversity, Prebake, Malware Domains, and Antisocial too...
Is this happening for anyone else?
Could this be because I'm using both EasyList and Fanboy's List?
what do?

Using Fanboy, EasyList, and Adversity together is a recipe for difficult-to-diagnose false positives and massive resource usage; stick to one of the three.
There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.

So I've been on Pandora for a while now, and I haven't heard any ads since turning off the other filters and updating yours. It's awesome. Thank you :)

I got element hiding helper add-on. <-is that it?
Wasn't sure what exactly to do with it... so I just hit view source.

Element hiding rule:
pandora.com##.treatment.current

I'm unable to re-produce this.. but if you add the following;

Code: Select all

pandora.com##.treatment
Does it cause fp's, and fix the ad from showing?
