The false-positive was something like "220.2o7.net". All of the ads have a "1" in the first group. I've used that *1* string for quite a while with no problems and no false-positives.

EDIT: The subdomain might be equally evil, but something would not work (probably the same problem as foxnews' video and 'doubleclick').
Mm. Okay. Well, I blocked all of *.2o7.net without problem for a long time, but I'm not blocking it now, so it doesn't matter for me anyway.

(About writing things down, it would be very convenient to have a dialog for each filter where we could put comments. I doubt Wladimir would like the idea of more dialogs, but I don't see a better way to do it. I installed Adblock Plus today after not having it installed for a while, and while converting a few Stylish styles I had made that can have comments strewn all over them to element hiding filters that can't, I really wanted that.)

@ Peng:

I do almost all of my filter discussions "privately" with a trusted group in the RichSterling.com forum ... not here. General filter discussions are fine for a 'public' forum like here, but (as you know) I have reasons why I think a lot of hardcore discussions should be hidden from public viewing.

The '2o7' thing could be in my forum's 'hidden area' archives somewhere if it was a discussion there ... but I think that it was just something I found and fixed myself a while back. It may not be a problem anymore, but leaving the *1* there really doesn't hurt anything.
