Adblock Plus

Hi, all!

To begin, my thanks to Wlad, Rick and everyone else who contributes
their time & talents for AdBlock. Given how many hours I spend online,
ABP is a practically a lifesaver...and this from a guy who (a) buys ads
and (b) sells things on the web.

Seriously, what you're doing is a public service and I think you deserve
to be commended for your efforts.

I'm running FFrc2 in XP with Rick's 3-part filter set-up. And, yes, I've
disabled the 'Show Tabs' option. Anyway, my issues concern videos on
two, different sites. The symptoms & sources differ, as well, so I'll post
them separately. Here's problem #1:

Cnet.com's product review videos seem to load Ok, but refuse to play.
Other videos on the site - like cnettv - seem OK. I fiddled a bit with both
FF settings and my ABP filters - here's what I found.:

1) With ABP disabled the videos load & play just fine.
2) I checked the page source against the 'blockables' list, but even so...
3) With ABP active, nothing helped except - at minimum - full exception
for 'reviews.cnet.com'.
4) Interestingly, when I disable ABP and force a reload, not only does the
video player recover but I still see no ads. When I flip to Explorer 7 view
via IETab, several ads appear.

That's pretty much it. I look forward to your suggestions or comments.

A typical cnet.com 'product review' page.:

http://reviews.cnet.com/lcd-monitors/de ... 86455.html

Again, I am able to see the player. It indicates that 'video playlist
is loading', then stops at the opening frame for this product. But
when I click 'play', the player just goes black.

Fixed ...updated

Thanx for the kudos

Thanks! Works great, now.

I especially like the way your filter-subscription updated so easily.
Truly seamless.

Oh, hey - you're more than welcome.

...with some cnet content. Here's an example (page-center).:

And, yes, if I disable ABP the video plays.

In the previous example, the video seems to start and I get a look
at the opening 'frame' - then it stops.:

But here's another example that won't play at all.:

or to cover both,
