The regular expression /ads/ should filter everything containing the letters ads.
But with the lastest dev-builds this doesn't happen (stable is OK).

Bug with Regex?
In regular expressions '\W' matches any character except alphabet characters or the underscore character, so:
"/\Wads\W/"
Will block:
"http://service/ads/test..."
But not:
"http://serviceads/test..."
Because '\W' matches the '/' character either side of ads in the first URL but not 'e' in front of ads in the second URL. Is that what you were asking?
"/\Wads\W/"
