Mediafire Ad

[enbob]

This is a weird one. On MediaFire downloads, there's a checkbox under the download link and unless you uncheck it before you click download, it will open a popup. You may have to refresh the page a few times, because the checkbox isn't there every time. Is it possible to block this?

Code: Select all

Edit: And by block, I mean prevent the ad/checkbox from appearing and the popup from opening.

I see no popups using my subscription

I can't find any unblocked advertising when using EasyList either.

the only popup i see is on the bottom asking you to Upgrade to Mediafire Pro account so you get such and such features, etc...
if you want you can add the following DIV to hide it

Code: Select all

mediafire.com###catfish_div

This is just for Easylist. I see this available in fanboys list already. Other than that i don't see any other popups. Most of them are blocked.

Hmm, I can't get it to show up right now. If I get it again, I'll take a screenshot.

Here's a screenshot of the ad.

I got it on this page.

The checkbox appears under the download link and opens a popup when you click the link unless you uncheck the box. I think it's that pmsrvr.com thing.

Would you please try to select the area using the Adblock Plus Element Hiding Helper and report back the filter generated?

Here's what I could come up with using the Element Hiding Helper:



I saw the ad on this page: http://www.mediafire.com/?tg2kmmt3nad#1

Here's the ad image: http://pmsrvr.com/click/static/images/r ... iafire.gif

The only other thing in the blockable items from pmsrvr.com is this script: http://pmsrvr.com/click/display?pid=med ... d=77241276

EasyPrivacy contains this filter ||pmsrvr.com^$third-party. Maybe it should be moved to EasyList.
