I have a problem with the austraian yahoo site http://au.yahoo.com/just about every thing is blocked where as the normal yahoo http://www.yahoo.com/ works fine. Can anyone else confirm this?

Are you using any subscriptions and what is missing from there?

I am using the EasyList and EasyElement filters and the pages look fine.

I had all the lists enabled and tracked the problem down to ChinaList and Jab Creations both seem to block the javascrips and all the images on the aussie yahoo. Working fine after disabling them.

It seems like the filter in effect in both of those subscriptions is:

Code: Select all

yimg.com/a

...which is causing false-positives on requests for:

Code: Select all

http://au.a1.yimg.com/au.yimg.com/

You can disable that filter string (in each) if you want. Both of those authors should see this.

I have this filter in my subscription, how can I keep it yet make an exception at the same time? I read the guide but did not see what I was looking for.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention! I'll be sure to hang out here more often.

Just add another "/" after the last "a".
That's why my filter was not affected.
