I am very pleased with Adblock Plus,But I have a problem. On the JPost.com website when I want click on certain ads. that I want to read,I get the following message;"Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at ads.jpost.com." I have placed "ads.jpost" as an exception,even dis-enabling Adblock without success. I have no firewalls set up.I have tried to find out if Firefox have any filter lists included in their program.But could not find any information.Please help.

There are a few options how you can do this:
Allow only the "jpost.com" items which will allow only the first-party "jpost.com" addresses:

Code: Select all

@@.jpost.com/

or this that should allow just the first-party ads but not the top leaderboard ad:

Code: Select all

@@static.jpost.com/*/promos/

Or allow the entire site that will allow everything there:

Code: Select all

@@|http:*.jpost.com/

@@ads.jpost only allows the top leaderboard ad
...it is not enough.

If none of these work correctly, the server that you are connecting to may have been down or you have another program that is blocking that like a Windows Host file .... or NoScript? At that point, it would not be an Adblock Plus problem.
