What is the name of the port scanning software depicted in the first picture? Anyone knows? Thanks

 

Betcha' Lawrence Abrams at BleepingComputer would know.

 

It's just the Network pane of the browser developer tools, ctrl-shift-i while on a web page.

 

Hi guys. I am having issues with Tom's Hardware...When I have only 3rd party frames blocked I can access it, when I have 3rd party scripts also blocked I get this...
https://www.tomshardware.com/cc.html

 

Disable uBlock temporarily on the site

Go to the main site: https://www.tomshardware.com/
Create a noop rule for "futurecdn.net"

Now enable uBlock

 

It works! How did you figure that out?

 

I used the logger. And saw that "futurecdn.net" was being blocked.

So, I tried an allow(green) and then noop(gray). They worked.

 

I didn't see it being blocked

 

If you remove the noop rule and go to the site. There should be a script blocked called "vanilla.futurecdn.net"

 

thank you, i entered as you wrote and it immediately worked. i could see the blocked data but i did not see the combination to it. thats one of the amount of cdn which should be noop'd ->

Hi, some help with this, please. Sometimes when I go to a site, https://www.express.co.uk/, for example, I lose the ability to scroll. I have to turn off Ublock, accept cookies, and then re-enable Ublock to block ads and enable scrolling. After doing this the site works for a bit (4 days) then I have to repeat the process. Is there something I can do to stop repeating the process?

EDIT: It's the EU cookie s**t list that causing the problem so removed it.

 

that filter list removes the annoying popup, but this means for some pages that an overlay will remain and no scrolling bar. its a half baked solution.

from my experience its the better way to use the "eye" in ublocks dialog to disable such cosmetic filters for the page.

Guys all of a sudden I can't play videos on this page anymore, I can't figure out what to enable:

https://www.gids.tv/video/222406/ba...-door-benjamin-pavard-ed?utm_source=tvgids.tv

 

Try

Code:

@@||choice.faktor.io^$frame,script,xhr,domain=gids.tv

 

The videos don't play for me either, even if I disable ublockO for the site. I checked firewall logs and don't see any remote ports blocked.

 

They play for me after adding the mentioned filter.
I added the filter to uBO-unbreak, so if you update that list it should work.

 

I tried that, it makes no difference. Videos still won't play. Disabling uBlockO takes the add-on out of the picture, and that doesn't help either. The only other add-on I have is Privacy Badger and even with all allowing all domains that also makes no difference. maybe it's a country problem? Just speculation of course.

 

I can reproduce if I use a US IP, the videos won't load no matter what.
If I use a EU IP it works after adding my filter.
Without my filter the video won't load on my end because the cookie notice is blocked and the videos won't load unless you accept the cookie notice.

 

thats consensu again with its frame/overlay

Code:

@@||cdnjs.cloudflare.com^$script,domain=www.gids.tv
@@||cdnjs.cloudflare.com^$stylesheet,domain=www.gids.tv
@@||cmp.choice.faktor.io^$script,domain=cmp.choice.faktor.io
@@||cmp.faktor.mgr.consensu.org^$subdocument,domain=www.gids.tv

no-cosmetic-filtering: www.gids.tv true <-- important for cookie notice

www.gids.tv * 3p-frame allow
www.gids.tv cloudflare.com * allow
www.gids.tv consensu.org * allow
www.gids.tv faktor.io * allow
www.gids.tv gids.tv * noop
www.gids.tv jsdelivr.net * allow
www.gids.tv massariuscdn.com * allow
www.gids.tv www.gids.tv * allow

noop or allow, just a quick shot to try out

 

Creation of allow-rules in the panel will soon be an opt-in feature:

 

Good decision by Gorhill

 

same discussion as usual - in some cases there is no noop possible.

 

Hi to all.
The 3 predefined malware lists don't seem very efficient.
Malware Domain List also blocks links from 2017 that have been inactive for some time.
Spam404 has phishing content in Filterlist.
Malware domains can easily be replaced by DNS blocking.

Do you consider it necessary to replace the 3 lists with others?

The urlhaus-filter (Online Domains) malware-only list is interesting.
