Rated 3 out of 5
by Firefox user 9859644, 9 years agoI like this add-on even though when Mozilla first load up, some ads sneak in but after Mozilla is fully loaded the ads disappear. An update must've happened within 24 hours because when I went to Youtube to play some videos today I keep getting an 'error has occurred. please try back later.' and it gives an ID code. I go to restart Mozilla in safe mode and the Youtube videos play so I learn it's an add-on screwing up what once was working and find out it's this add-on. So now if I want to watch a Youtube video I would have to disable this add-on to do so. I'm tired of having to go through this with Mozilla. Either an update screws up my settings or an updated add-on screws up my settings. When will the developers learn that if it 'ain't' broke then stop trying to 'fix' it!!

posted 9 years agoA couple of broken filters in EasyList recently caused YouTube videos not to load. Instead, videos displayed the error you saw. This affected every ad blocker that uses EasyList (which is most of them, actually).
The folks at EasyList were made aware of the issue and released an update pretty quickly. You should have received the update automatically within a day or two. Please make sure your filter lists are current. If they aren't, manually update your filter lists and restart your browser to apply the corrections.
To manually update your filter lists:
Click the AdBlock button on the browser toolbar and select Options.
On the FILTER LISTS tab, click update now.
Restart your browser.
Please let us know if this doesn't work for you!

- Rated 2 out of 5by webeza, 3 months agoWe get this app for blocking ads that open without authorization and well, today I had it. Every single time I open firefox in a hurry to research something and I am done typing... oh... there is the big huge adblock window blocking me from continuing my tasks and everything I typed well... it did not get typed... Yep, I will disable and remove adblock today and move on with something else that is not this rude.

Literally braindead developer decision; this garbage deserves 0 stars.
