Thanks.

Does anyone think it's a lot higher than 90%, at least for English-language sites? It's impossible to know, since each of us uses only a miniscule subset, but I can go days without seeing any ads.

Have you got a sample website using this filter?


http://banner.b-one.com.ua/media/*

Hi mp3geek,
I have a question - can I use your urlfilter.ini, modify it (just a bit) and redistribute it?
Here is what I mean:
I'm from Bulgaria. I have been using the filter for quite some time now, but there are some very popular Bulgarian sites that are not filtered by the list. So I have been adding them to the list and using it like that. Now I thought I could put my version somewhere and let other people use it, too.
Here is how it will look like:
http://alpha-toxic.hit.bg/adblock/urlfilter.ini
Changes from yours:
- a bunch or URLs at the end
- entries in categories are sorted alphabetically (makes it easier to merge

)
- the Dimensions section is commented (I personally think that the chance of false positives there is too big, although it would filter some of the sites I've added)

btw, I doubt there are going to be more than a dozen people using my version

By Alpha-Toxic, # 10. May 2008, 19:46:18

Shouldn't be a problem, it is under the creative commons license..

The dimensions filters have less issues these days, haven't seen any false positives lately,.. or unless you know of any sites?

By mp3geek, # 10. May 2008, 23:43:31

Actually it's just a gut feeling

This is why I left it in there and only commented it, so if someone needs it he can just uncoment it.

By Alpha-Toxic, # 10. May 2008, 23:56:21

better use '#' to comment them out then

By mp3geek, # 11. May 2008, 03:07:05

oh... ; is not a comment? That would be a stupid mistake on my side lol.
I assumed that ; is also a comment because of the first several lines in the file and because my text editor uses it as comment for ini files, but I geuss this is not *exactly* an ini file.

By Alpha-Toxic, # 11. May 2008, 10:44:44

I guess you could use both, I normally stick the one I know works personally.. I'll be including some generic filters based upon your additions.

By mp3geek, # 11. May 2008, 11:06:19

Just one question about the list w stat/tracking sites. Is this the list that also blocks the stat/tracking sites?

I would like to see Opera being counted because of it's little market share; I guess I should get the other list.

By EricJH, # 18. May 2008, 13:41:55

that is correct, some people don't want to be counted by tracking sites. Privacy concerns, its available

The "default" list doesn't include the stats/tracking filters anymore.

By mp3geek, # 19. May 2008, 08:22:43

Thx for clearing that up.
