µBlock, a lean and fast blocker

Just wanted to let @gorhill and everyone else know the bug for popup UI of extensions leaking memory in Chrome is fixed: < https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=441500 >

 

On Firefox, I installed the latest 0.9.1.0 from the official site.
ublock with default filters.
It has some prob due to which sometimes sites load slow & sometimes keeps loading.
Uninstalled it & prob solved.

Installed ABP with ads filters only & no probs.

 

Cannot install uBlock on Pale Moon as it detects it's an older Firefox. Please fix

 

uBlock 0.9.1.0 for Firefox (36.0.1) on XP:

 

Apart from the Anti-Adblock Killer | Reek,
is µBlock willing to add the

AdBlock Warning Removal list
(https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org/antiadblockfilters.txt) ?

[Just a reminder: ABP and Adguard already include both Lists.]

 

Anti-Adblock Killer | Reek doesnt work very well with µBlock , using it with Tampermonkey is much more efficient.

I want to see that AdBlock Removal List included as well, many websites are using anti adblocks nowdays.

 

There where some problems in the past (see f.e. here)
But to enable it: Just remove the "!" in the custom lists window (bottom of the filters tab)

 

I've already done it.
Just wondering about the respective list...
Thanks for the link.

 

My experience from Adguard is that Killer/Reek catches more than Warning removal list.

 

I can't find post/comment about Android version at least in recent posts.
It works great on my Android version Firefox, is anyone using it?

 

It was recently enabled (i.e., with v0.9.1.0). There will be another build release soon, with couple of fixes, which should make it more stable.
However, i am using it and no issues to me so far. All works as expected.

Nice thing of this extension is you could observer the network requests (and all the features of desktop version) and see what is getting blocked and allowed. Definitely a step up for Mobile

And to be as efficient as possible, i disabled cosmetic filtering, and enabled dynamic filtering to block 3 Party scripts to block by default.

 

Maybe you can create a bug report there at github.
Also, can you share the url, so, we could try and see..

 

Just tried dev version its alot better and more consistent now its always show same amount of blocks.

 

I know, and it works perfectly on my Android 4.2.2.
Almost same as desktop version and ultra-light.
Maybe worth discussing in separate thread like Adgurad.

 

0.9.1.1 the setting Make use of context menu where appropriate does not stay set. i uncheck it and restart firefox and it is rechecked again. tried this numerous times. also uninstalled and reinstalled and same thing

 

I could reproduce. I opened an issue on Github: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/1057

 

@gorhill

Would it be possible to add a NOOP third party for everything to https://* websites in the whitelist section?

IMO this would increase the usability of third party script/frames blocking for average users.

Hi gorhill.
Test with the new features "No popups" (0.9.2.4 dev 2) installed on Firefox.
Setting as in the image (1):



no popup but the website does not work.
Just open the link highlighted by the yellow arrow.

P.S.Here is the option to not display unwanted content by setting a personal filter
uBlock acts before ABE:

 

Good new feature:

I tested in MDL:

 

Yeah, but it seems to have some consequences, I couldn't login to my gmail account due to this. I don't know why this suddenly doesn't work anymore, I'd rather had that option being implemented in a default OFF state, and an option to enable it on a site basis instead of the contrary.

 

Superb extension and thank you to the developer raymond.

Just a query though....
i use the firefox browser so would i be correct in assuming i do not need to use Noscript anymore or should i be running noscript and ublock together..?.

Thanks.

 

You must have read my mind. I just logged in to ask the same question. Was going to ask regarding firefox, whether to use uBlock with 3rd party filters and custom filters PLUS noScript OR only uBlock with 3rd party filters, custom filters AND Dynamic filtering with global rules blocking 3rd party scripts and 3rd party frames globally blocked MINUS noScript.
I would in the latter case have direct file access to ublock.sqlite file in my Sandboxie settings.

 

It depends. How were you using NoScript typically?

 

Actually, I'm using them both together with Firefox. However, I have disabled script blocking in NoScript. But in so doing, NS still provides XSS and ClickJack protection.

 

Are you using Sandboxie with FF? If so are using "direct file access to ublock.sqlite" file enabled in Sanboxie settings ?
