Adblock Plus

Ok whenever I use one of the subscription lists
it always has stuff whitelisted that I want to block, for example I cannot stand googlesyndication but if I try to remove an entry starting with @@ relating to syndication then all the lines of the subscription are removed. Am I misunderstanding the idea of what a subscription is and how I use it ?

From my limited experience, I believe that you are supposed to open the list and click on green "blob" to the right to enable/disable filter or filter set rules.

I don't know if the enable/disable state is carried through on the weekly updates or not.

The previous poster is correct. Just click the green bullet next to any strings you wish to disable. And "yes" those settings will stay even after a new update.

It is a very nice feature of ABP ... people can "fine tune" subscriptions for their own tastes.

I do appologise, actually, after posting I realised I should have been thinking RTFM but instead posted ! Thank you
I read the FAQ just after posting and realised I have been using adblockplus wrongly for the past 18 months or two years or so -
I have now got bookmarks to all the faqs and manuals

Also I do appologise for having postede in General Rather than the filters section -

No, I think you posted correctly as is really is a question about how ABP functions more than a question about the filter themselves
