    Hi there!


    Hi there!

    Thanks for reaching out to us! After some research we found that after the update users saw "always use private browsing mode" enabled in FF. Disabling this allows ABP to run as normal. To do this, click the settings menu icon in the right corner of the browser > settings >privacy & security > scroll down to the history section > choose "Use custom settings for history" from the drop down menu > uncheck "always use private browsing mode". If you need more assistance please contact us via support@adblockplus.org.

    Thanks

    v.3.1.3 does not work with Firefox, and it is not an issue with the settings in Firefox under privacy settings as the develepor suggests, it was not even on for me. Getting tons of Youtube and Twitter ads shown lately, it fixed the problem when I downgraded from 3.1.3 to version 3.1.2 for adblock plus and deactivate automated updates. Guys please fix your software for Firefox.

    As of this month, Youtube adds on Firefox now appear en masse. I can't seem to update the extension. I guess the Google team found a way to beat it.

    Version 3.13 is broken!

    If your block is not working, install the latest stable version 3.12 from here and temporarily disable the auto-update of this plugin.

    I used to use this, and it served me well. Not only did it block ads, it let me choose annoying elements, like the spaces where ads were, to block entirely.

    Sadly, since I let Firefox install the 100.0 iteration, Adblock Plus does basically NOTHING. Well, OK, it lets me install it, but does nothing afterward. Since there's no "Contact us" for ABP, I can't even tell 'em their addon is broken.

    So, maybe they'll eventually realize the problem, and if they fix it, I'll revise this review. For now, however, it gets one star. I'd give it NO stars if I could.

    Hi Nosmo King!

    Thanks for contacting us! After some research, we've found that some users are experiencing ads due to "always use private mode" enabled.

    bloque bien les pubs sur facebook, mais ensuite mon mur est vierge de publications. Zéro à revoir.

    I recommend everyone to avoid this add-on or remove it if you have installed it. Was great for the 2 or so years that I had it, until my browser was hijacked. Removed Adblock Plus and the hijacker disappeared. There's definitely some shady business going on with this add-on.

    Hi there!

    hmmm. That sounds quite odd. I assure you , we are not in the hijacking business at all. In fact we are on the exact opposite side of that business. We would be happy to investigate further, there are also a few copy cats out there. Either way, if you wish to isolate further we would be happy to assist. Try re-downloading via https://adblockplus.org and let us know if you experience any issues via support@adblockplus.org.

    Thanks

    Doesn't block everything anymore and some sites are so filled with new tab popups that they are unusable

    ABSOLUTELY DISCUSTINGLY TERRIBLE

    Hi there!

    Thanks for reaching out! We are more than happy to help! Can you provide an example URL where you are experiencing ads? A screenshot of your filter lists is also helpful. We will run a few test on our end and get back to you with a resolution.

    Thanks

    It doesn't work on Dailymotion and Pandora. The ads on Dailymotion are getting ridiculous. I can't watch the video very well because the ads have video and it's so loud and I can't hear the video I was watching. Please update the add-on so the ads will no longer interfere.

    Fake adblocker. According to my research, it will collect personal info and it has accepted money to authorise some adds. You can now make your own thoughts.

    Hi there!

    There seems to be some misunderstandings about our Acceptable Ads Initiative. Users are still in control, and can disable “allow acceptable ads” in options. If you still experience ads with this option disabled, please be advised that these are more than likely NOT Acceptable Ads. In these cases please send us the URL along with a screenshot of your subscribed filter lists to support@adblockplus.org. We are usually able to get these reported to the filter list team and resolved. Rest assured no company can pay us to have their ads shown. Publishers have to meet the criteria set by the Acceptable Ads Committee before being considered. Most companies actually pay us nothing at all. You can find more details regarding Acceptable Ads here https://acceptableads.com.

    Thanks
