Adblock Plus

Hi there,

got a website I regularly visit, but since some weeks, there's an ad from a service offering game-downloads similar to Steam..

So, I'd like to block that ad-stuff and therefore created a filter-rule like this: But that just won't work - but if I change it to it will work fine.

Though, the reason I'd prefer to use a filter of the first style, because there might be a website using a folder-name like that and the filter shouldn't block that - just stuff from metaboli.de and metaboli.fr


Thanks in advance,
Martin..

That's invalid, regular expressions starts and ends with /
According to this tool: http://adblock.free.fr/optimize/index.php
Correct one is: But regular expressions are slow, these two rules work MUCH faster: Read these two:

http://adblockplus.org/en/faq_internal#filters

...That means that if you need 20 simple filters to replace one regular expression then it is still worth it...

Thanks a lot!

I'm going to use "metaboli.de" and "metaboli.fr" then..

Though I knew that regex-syntax normally is /somestuff/, I looked at the other rules and maybe there was some misunderstanding about that within my mind.. - Again, sorry for that..


Take care and thanks,
Martin..
