Chrome overlay ads.

Hi!

http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/4430/chromen.gif as an example.

I saw this once in a while lately on various web sites. It is very annoying. No filters blocked it yet? I am using fanboy, adblockrules, easylist+easyprivacy, etc.

Thank you in advance.

Didn't see it myself.. Does this help?

Code: Select all

||space.com/js/site_pops.js

@fanboy: That script is for internal advertising, the banner format is different as well - definitely not the issue here. Judging by the link in the status bar, api.toptenreviews.com is the culprit. I cannot see the ad either however.

The ad. comes up very rarely and randomly. I should had done a view info. The problem is not easy to reproduce it if I reload or whatever.

Code: Select all

<script type='text/javascript' id='popup_tag_script' src='http://api.toptenreviews.com/r/c/request.php?path=tmn/partner/physorg&sub_id=testsubid'></script>

http://www.space.com/

Code: Select all

<script type='text/javascript' id='popup_tag_script' src='http://api.toptenreviews.com/r/c/request.php?path=tmn/space&sub_id=default'></script>

Okay, I've added the following,..which should hopefully take care of the ads?

I saw it again on phsyorg.com. It was from http://www.toptenreviews.com/i/misc/chrome-popup.jpg ... I didn't update my filters which I am going to do right after this post.

I'm still seeing the add on space.com and i just added easylist and fanboyz list as i just made a new separate firefox profile for minefield 64bit nightlys a few minutes ago, It disappears by itself after a set amount of time. If you clear cookies and cache you will see the ad again. I bet this url toptenreviews.com/i/misc/ is just all there ad crap, I'm thinking of just adding that to my personal filters. I don't ever visit toptenreviews site anyway so if it does block anything else for me on that site i could care less lol.

Okay modified the filter a bit, see if this helps, (just force an update of the subscription..)

Code: Select all

||api.toptenreviews.com^*/request.php

Modified EasyList filter to (https://hg.adblockplus.org/easylist/rev/2de7a8a946b8)

Code: Select all

||toptenreviews.com^*/request.php$third-party

[thebudman420]

Your update works i tested after clearing cache and everything and all good it seems.

I saw this again on http://www.securitynewsdaily.com/fake-a ... ware-0361/ with http://www.toptenreviews.com/i/misc/chrome-popup.jpg ... Is anyone else seeing it too? I didn't update my filters for days though.
