Unable to block tricky ad
Posted: Wed Feb 24, 2016 12:07 am
Hello, I'm trying to block the ad that shows at the top of the page on http://www.extremetech.com/
I'm using Google Chrome on Windows 8 if it makes any difference.
Here is the one that I'm talking about http://i.imgur.com/DEcelqY.png
I've tried creating a rule that blocks 'extremetech.com###bannerad' and that works, the ad is blocked temporarily, but when I refresh the page the ad re-appears, with the same ID (extremetech.com###bannerad).
This seems to be specially designed to circumvent AdBlock Plus. It does not load at startup, there's a 1-2 second delay before it loads.
Can someone confirm, perhaps using other browsers ? Are there any solutions to block this, currently ?
Thanks!
