IE9 adblocker that works

Quite a "1984" type of name. Anyway, the "abine" list looks interesting. I'll see if I can scavenge something from there to add to my Privoxy user.action.

 

Thanks for the suggestion, but from my short experience with it, I noticed it wrongly blocked things like images on failblog, and various facebook links on websites.

I think Fanboy has fixed the ads on your links because I don't see them. I'll stick to Fanboy's lists, far more reliable, never had issues with things being blocked that shouldn't be.

 

Thanks for the feedback, elapsed. I'm no longer seeing those ads with fanboy's TPL's either.

 

TRUSTe's TPL improved:

Well, at least it does not pretty much negate all the blacklists as before.

That's great and all for people who want it but there really is 0 need for it. Fanboy's TPL's work perfectly fine. Use what's built into your browser.

 

I may have asked this before but here goes again, do these tpl's update on their own?

Another question comes to mind. When these tpl's are enabled do third party adblockers work? I know that AdBlock Pro doesn't seem to work but I was curious about others such as AdMuncher or the one from SuperAnti.

 

Yes.

No idea, why would it matter (if the TPL's are doing their job)? Logically, I don't see why they shouldn't work if they're IE9 compatible.

 

The hiding of elements on a page. Adblock Pro used to do this for me but now it doesn't. It will block/remove it for that instance but a refresh of the page returns it. This might be accomplished with adding to a tpl, not for sure though and haven't tried it.

 

I believe you can accomplish that by using Fanboy's Opera CSS element filter file.

Far right:

You can add it to IE in the Internet Options > Accessibility > Format documents using my style sheet.

I don't use it but I've been told it works fine.

 

Interesting. In my last reply, I was going to mention that I used to accomplish this with css when running Firefox. I no longer have a use for Firefox but remember the days when I did. Thanks

 

In IE9 can you have more than one Tracking Protection List? For example Fanboys and Truste

 

Yes. (Make sure they do not negate each other... allow > deny in TPL logic)

 

How can I check that? I thought that if one denies x and the other one allows x. it will always deny x. Does it work like these?

 

The Doktor will correct me if I"m wrong but I think the tie goes to the allow.

 

No, unfortunately the logic is the other way round... (You can easily display the rules in the list from the IE GUI if you want to check what it really does.)

 

Ok thanks, I will only use Fanboy´s list to prevent this thing.

I have see checked that even if I use the same lists in IE9 and firefox with Adblock plus. In IE9 not all of the adds are blocked (while in ff4 yes). Do your know why??

 

Some years ago i used MVPS Hosts ( trought "Hostsman"), Spybot immunize feature and Spyware Blaster, with very good results.

 

Which blocklist do you guys think is more complete?
1. EasyPrivacy Tracking Protection List
2. EasyList Standard Protection List
3. Fanboy - Adblock Tracking Protection List
4. Fanboy - Tracking Protection List
