How to get rid of this (ugly) ad:

Post by Cotp »

Hello all :)

There is a big Lexus ad on Canal Plus site.
See here:
http://player.canalplus.fr/#/297645

It seems part of the flash movie...

Does anyone know how to block this one ?

Is there for instance a way to block a zone (rectangle) from the screen just by defining the zone in pixel like with the MesureIt extention ?

I've found it via the list of blockable items of ABP (ctrl+shift+V). You just need to add this filter to Adblock Plus and reload that canal plus page:

Code: Select all

I have added this rule:

Code: Select all

media.canal-plus.com##IMG[src="http://media.canal-plus.com/image/01/2/162012.jpg"]
cleared cache and reloaded the page, nothing changes :|

When I do (ctrl+shift+V) nothing happens too snif snif (sorry about that) :oops:

That link just points to Fanboy's log so we can keep track of what filters were added and for what reason.

If you want to subscribe to his filters go to http://www.fanboy.co.nz/adblock/

You can either access the list of blockable items via this shortcut or via rightclick on the Adblock Plus symbol and choose "Open blockable items".

Ctrl+Shift+V won't work if another extension claims that shortcut key. However, clicking the ABP toolbar icon should have the same effect.

It also does not work if the focus is on a flash object.
