I'm seeing the same problem here. Specifically it's Flash animations (not just the ad for Sleuth) that I see and there's no tab showing to block the image. I made sure that "Show Tabs on Flash and Java" is checked. I'd like to find out why there is no tab on the animation.
You can block them manually by pressing ctrl+shift+B and selecting what you want to block from the list(if they are flash ads they will be listed as an "object" in the type column).
Is this the flash ads across the page top? If so, I took care of that in the element filter yesterday.
I used to have that hidden a long time ago but had to reinstate it because part of the navigation disappeared with it ... now in this case now. I have put it back now.
Oh, I see now. That ad is removed with the EasyList.
I think it is served from "view.atdmt.com/"
EDIT
I just saw a scripted popover from *.eyewonder.* that appears and then disappears in the middle of the page. That is also already taken care of in the EasyList.
This did the job for me. I suspect those that can't see the ads already have them filtered out. Apparently IMDB has changed the way that ads are displayed and current filters don't catch them. But I was able to kill them with Ctrl-Shift-B Thanks!
I am pulling my hair out trying to get rid of that bloody ad on the top of the page. How does one turn those off? Every time I put one on the list, it just makes a new directory for it to come from. The item on the list is also green. How do I make it so that it works?
