  it seems to work really well for some sites, but places like myspace? i dont think it does very much b/c i still see a lot of ads on the myspace front page and also after logging into my account =/

  also.. i guess this doesnt prevent those popup ads or ads opening in new tabs does it?
  
  

• DMcCunney said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Oct 14 2008

  Two suggestions, based on experience with space.com

  First, remove [href*="akamaitech.net"],[src*="akamaitech.net"],
  This was generating false positives, and blocking images associated with stories.

  Second, add [href*="adlegend.com"],[src*="adlegend.com"],
  This seems to be Yet Another Ad Server site.

  Other than that, I'm delighted. I'm not fanatic about blocking all ads, and I don't want the overhead of AdBlock Plus. I just want ad heavy sites cleaned up and made readable, and FiltersetP does the job efficiently.

  You're welcome on the adlegend bit, and thanks for the akamaitech update. Akamai is a major CDN, and serves an awful lot of stuff that isn't ads, so care is needed. It took me about about an hour to figure out why Space.com wasn't displaying images, and I was a bit startled when the Filterset P CSS was the culprit. :-)

  Gmail Remove Logo http://userstyles.org/styles/11168 does the same but works with Gmail 2.
  

• metalmeric said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Aug 22 2008

  Works great. Catches some things that the Adblock Plus extension doesn't.
  

• bugmenot2 said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Aug 06 2008

  Can you update this style to block the Google sponsored ads?
  

• rio said about GMail "No Lines" w/New Format on Jul 22 2008

  great, why default has underline?
  

• mastavic said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Jul 16 2008

  I agree with User Styles. More and more ads are getting through, and an update is needed. (May 1st, 2008)

  Update (July 16th, 2008): Thank you very much for the update! I've been waiting for months for an update to this style. I hope you can continue to update this style frequently. Thanks.

• vbielawski said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Jun 29 2008

  The inclusion of blocking links with "javax" in their href makes browsing through the Java API documentation difficult. Otherwise, absolutely amazing replacement for a previously needed extension.
  

• User Styles said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Apr 26 2008

  I have adblocking filtersetp installed and it has always worked like a charm, but lately
  its been not blocking a lot of ads. Is there any new enhancements out there?
  

• IZ-Person said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Apr 13 2008

  This is absolutely amazing. We all appreciate the work that has been put into this. :)
  

• tsunami643 said about Yahoo Blaster ScrapYard on Mar 31 2008

  Oh man this is exactly what I was looking for to get rid of the stupid text ads on the side pane.
  

• smsmith said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Jan 31 2008

  You may wish to consider adding:
  richmedia.yimg.com

  It blocks some of the ads that seem to persist on Yahoo! with this style. I haven't found anything broken yet because of this addition. If I find something is broken, I'll post back here.

  Keep up the great work!

• evolvetek said about GMail Remove Top Left Padding on Dec 03 2007

  Great feature. However, as Aliji said, it does not work with the new version of Gmail. It seems the fix would be simple enough, looking at the code, however, I do not know the innards of Gmail vs Gmail 2.

  Can someone please look into this and update it?
  

• Aliji said about GMail Remove Top Left Padding on Dec 01 2007

  Doesn't work with Gmail 2.

• jonnny said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Nov 15 2007

  You're definitely my ad filter of choice !

  One thing I noticed is it blocks links on craigslist for example: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/etc/479801040.html should have a link to a survey in it.

  Anyway, thanks for your great work! I like it.

  The "Next" and "Previous" functions at the bottom of current news seem to disappear, whcih makes navigation difficult from one day to the next (previous) day postings: any ideas on how to fix this?

  Ah, color coding for important buttons! Very good idea! Thanks
  
  

• frederick szczepanski said about GMail Button Colors on Oct 04 2007

  Works great. A+ Script.
  

• prosayist said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Sep 26 2007

  Kudos for a wonderful style; however, I noticed that with the primary reason I downloaded 'Ad Blocking FiltersetP' (MIVA_AdLink), it not only removes the green underline and the Floating Ad on hover but it also completely removes the offending word making documents difficult to comprehend)
  e.g. http://www.fitnessattitudes.com/pilates.html

  Is this by design? fixable? known bug?

  Aside from this, "good effort" for your "Great work" on this "quintessential ad blocking style". I look forward to a response/update/solution.

  Noticed that there was a new version (3.40) but found that it somehow underlines certain paragraphs on Betanews. Like this:

  there is a memory leak, till another update, stick with ABP. other than that, not bad
  

• beerfan said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Jun 14 2007

  This is a good effort. However, Privoxy (along with the FoxyProxy extension) is far more effective at blocking ads *and* cookies. This stylesheet will hide ads but they will still be downloaded, along with cookies from those domains.
  

• Jason Barnabe (np) said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on May 30 2007

  The quintessential ad blocking style.
  

• Webb said about Google Search Results Filter on May 25 2007

  Google recently updated its code, which makes this style workable again. You just need to add the sibling tables to each link, like so:

  a:link[href*="amazon.com"],a:link[href*="amazon.com"]+TABLE,
  

• s@ndman said about Image Search Results Black Background Multi Site on Apr 18 2007

  Very Nice!!!
  

• Tweakster said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP AddOn: Avatars/Emoticons on Apr 14 2007

  .postdetails > img { display: none !important; }

  Takes care of all phpBB avatars, but will also nuke badges and ranks. Use at your own discretion.

  .postbody > img { display: none !important; }

  Takes care of all images inside phpBB posts. use at your own discretion.

  Edit: >>

  No, [src*="smilie"] doesn't cause rampant false positives as far as I can tell. You could also add [src*="/emotic"] and [src*=/emote"] .

  Finally, you could do other attributes. [class*="avatar"], [id*="avatar"], [class*="smilie"], [id*="smilie"], [class*="emotic"], [id*="emotic"], [class*="smiley"], [id*="smiley"]...

  Yahoo abbreviates to [href*="avtr"], [src*="avtr"] .

• xamm said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Feb 15 2007

  Its been pretty good so far but it blocks most of the links on http://inextremo.puck-records.de/
  Removing [href*="shop/index.php"] fixed it.
  

• cblover said about CustomButtons Background Color - SPECIFIC on Feb 11 2007

  Since as one "messes" with CBs, the index numbers change, is it possible to accomplish this style using the button names rather than the button index numbers?

  Useful for identifying where CBs are.

  I hope that someone can figure out how to address the suggested enhancement.

  I think this would be a perfectly superb style if it addressed the changes that I would hope that someone can do.
  
  

• cblover said about CustomButtons Background Color - ALL on Feb 11 2007

  Does not set the background custom button color for buttons on toolbars added by the Customize Toolbars Window.

  Useful for identifying where CBs are.

  I hope that someone can figure out how to address the suggested enhancement.

  I think this would be a superb style if it addressed the changes that I would hope that someone can do.

• rumisong said about CustomButtons Background Color - SPECIFIC on Jan 19 2007

  Fantastic feature to have on my Firefox, thanks!!

  just so other newbies like me can know, you can also figure out the button # by going to about:config and filtering for " custombuttons " (without quotes)

  someday soon Ill learn about Dom Inspector (what a scary thing that looks to be ;))

• Valacar said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Dec 21 2006

  I think your last selector [class="iAs"] should be using color:inherit, instead of color:black. That way it uses the text color of its parent element, instead of assuming all web sites use black text ;p
  

• whiteflyer said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP AddOn: Avatars/Emoticons on Dec 16 2006

  I got the following message when trying to preview

  "The code you entered contains errors:
  Selector expected. Ruleset ignored due to bad selector."
  

• bxlgnd said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Dec 14 2006

  This may be more conventional than Adblock Plus but it is less useful. There is no ability to whitelist sites and/or ads and it has more false positives than Adblock. One major false positive render the download page of http://www.adultswim.com useless. There are false positives in email ads that I subscribe to from multiple vendors completely rendering the email useless. One such vendor is Gap Inc. (Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic). Links that contain the word ads (though they are not ads) are completely removed and renders content inaccessible. One example would be to go to http://www.consumerist.com and do a search for "black friday". You will notice that on the second page of results certain posts links are missing because they contain the word ad or ads. Your style could also use more documentation and comments so that we would know how each section works and not have to go through the time consuming task of picking stuff out one by one.

  *UPDATE*
  Paulfox has contacted me personally to work out my issues. My original rating has been removed pending the outcome and was solely based on a comparison with Adblock Plus on its efficiency and ease of use and customization.

  For Yahoo problems, you can replace [id^="advert"] with [id^="advert"]:not([class="md-sub"])
  and replace [href*="qks"] with [href*="qks"]:not([href*="qkssh"])

• Flight23 said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Nov 13 2006

  This causes problems with the finance.yahoo.com dropdown menus for some reason. The CSS menus do not move to the appropriate part of the page and remain just off to the right of the window where they cannot be accessed... When I disable it, everything works fine.

• ariel said about GMail Remove Top Left Padding on Jul 30 2006

  Hi Paulfox

  I think there is one conflict - With Gmail. The blank DIV < div#nt1 > is used by Gmail for status messages and Undo action. Like when you delete some mail, a message appeare in that DIV saying "The conversation has been moved to the Trash. Learn more Undo"
  
  

• arog said about Ad Blocking FiltersetP on Jul 29 2006

  I have disabled Adblock plus w FiltersetG to give this a try & so far this is working great. I also use the extension 'Remove It Permanently' which enables a final cleaning of the page - often what remains is the word 'Advertisement' which RIP can eliminate. If this uses fewer resources, does its job faster and continues to give these good results, no doubt this nets out as a plus. Thank you for doing the work.

  Thanks, Paulfox. That one is great also! Kid_ReeFer, it is working here... Did it happen right after you installed any extension or any other style? It could be an incompatibility... Or, if for some reason, the image became blocked by adblock (if you have it instlalled)?
