mercurynews.com Fry's ads - How allow?

[Milton]

How can I get adblok plus to allow the images from the Fry's store ads on the mercurynews.com site, but block everything else?

Using Firefox 3.6.3 on KUbuntu 10.4, with Ghostery & NoScript also installed.

I have added mercurynews.com to the ABP preferences, but no selection of checking or unchecking the boxes for (from mental memory) "my filters", & the mercurynews.com checkbox, permit the mercurynews.com Frys ads to display.

The only way I can get the ads to display is to disable ABP completely:
Edit > Preferences > General > Manage Addons > Extensions > ABP
then shutdown & restart firefox.

Then, when done looking at that site, I have to go back & reenable ABP.

Thanks

Click the link halfway down the page, right side: Fry's
That takes you to:

Only with ABP disabled completely do the daily ads show up.

There a couple ways....
The easy way is to Right-click the ABP icon down on your status bar and click "Disable on newspaperads.mercurynews.com".
(If you don't see the ABP icon on your status bar you can use Firefox's "Tools>Adblock Plus Preferences"
then use that window's "Options>Show in status bar" to enable it.)

If you like to tinker you can use the "Add filter ..." button on the Adblock Plus Preferences window to add the following filter:
@@||newspaperads.mercurynews.com^$document

Code: Select all

@@||cdn.travidia.com^$domain=newspaperads.mercurynews.com

I guess its a legitimate use of an advert, adding to the Fanboy list. (if you subscribe, just re-update)
