Whats wrong with adblockplus?

[FER]

From day to night adblock plus decided it wont block some ads anymore, and cant block them manually wiht right click.

I reinstalled adblock, firefox and nothign worked

Prob needs an update to keep up with a Firefox update... The one I have on Chrome is fine - but I've not updated my Firefox in, ages, as I only use it for testing web pages.

it is updated.

The only way for it to block those few ads is by disabling then enabling it, but I have to do it again if all browser windows are closed.

Not keeping its settings between sessions... Hrmmm... Maybe a setting on the Firefox side, or the plugin side...

Seems to be a recent thread about it in the AdBlock Forums, though I'm not seeing a real solution per say.

Yes, no coincidence i was the user triple posting

lolz... Shoulda caught that.

Well, if the full uninstall don't cut it - IDK - more likely someone could help you there than here... I'd check your FireFox shortcut and make sure there's no new paramater flags on the launcher that might cause that. Might also see about getting a FireFox cleaner, to be sure you get a clean uninstall (no lingering registry entries or what not). Though I've no link to one, off hand.

Wouldnt have posted here if the devs at their own forums would have answered anything, even a "i dont know".

I already did a complete uninstall of the thing, so i guess i just have to wait and see if they care to answer.

Do you have 'Allow some non-intrusive advertising' enabled? It's enabled by default and you may have to disable it.

Firefox
CTRL+SHIFT+A
Click options for Adblock Plus
Under Rating, click 'Filter Preferences...'
Disable 'Allow some non-intrusive advertising' at the bottom.

Chrome
Settings
Extensions
Options
Disable 'Allow some non-intrusive advertising'.

Its already solved. Somehow the avg toolbar was the cause.
