Antisocial or Fanboy Annoyances not working

Post by optombvpu »

I subscribed to antisocial filter today, and i found that it was not working on the majority of website, actually it should remove all the social networking icons or widgets,but it was only removing social buttons or like box. Details are

Adblock plus: 1.3.10
Mozilla firefox 7.0.1
Filters used - Fanboy list ( Indian, P2P, tracking/stats blocking) and adversity
No custom filter used


The antisocial filter used to work with previous version of adblock plus which was 1.3.9. I dont know what is causing the issue, i was using all the set of filters even in the previous version and there were none issues.

i was given 3 options

1.adblock is blocking too mush
2. It is not blocking advertisement
3. Other

If i selected option 2, it is telling me to remove certain filters and check it again, so which option should i use now, am i really using too many filters, which is causing this issue?

If you are using Fanboy's main and tracking list together with his Indian list there is no need to also use Adversity.

Also Fanboy's annoyance and my Antisocial list probably should not be used together. If you only want to block social content then you can use Antisocial but if you want annoyances blocked also then I would stick to Fanboy's lists.

Once you have removed any subscriptions you don't need please try again.
