    I'm not sure if that's right for this list, but here are the filters I would use if I were to add them.

    Block retrieval of URL:
    .skype.com/smallicon/

    Add CSS to all pages:
    a[onclick^="imwindow('skype',"] {display:none;}

    Which browser are you using?

    It's working properly here in all the browsers I've tested.

    Only Opera was slightly problematic, refreshing usually fixed it.

    I tried IE and Firefox. The red button is gone. If i delete the Social List the red button is back, as it should be. Strange.

    IE10 and Firefox 19

    I tried everything. Do you see the red button (Jij reageer) to go to the comments? See screen http://13e.imghost.us/bh/3.JPG

    I only see this button if i disable admuncher or delete the Social list in the CustomStrings.dat

    Maybe i do something wrong? I paste the social list under the custom filters.

    Thank you for the help, much appreciated.

    FYI I use Firefox 19 & Social List 30 - I see that button with Ad Muncher enabled. It was my first visit to the site so it worked as expected.

    I recently reported an ad to Jeff but he couldn't see it. I asked him to add this ad to his advert list but replied he cannot do that unless he see it himself :D

    Hallo

    Would you like this also include in the list.
    grenswetenschap.nl/veld.asp : top right

    p.s. to me is also no red button on display at nu.nl
    Maybe it's a Dutch thing.

    And for this advert on Skype
    View attachment 237168
    Tried everything to this ad to get away; what I could find on google and on the forum.
    But nothing works.
    Perhaps do you know there is a solution for.

    Greetings Brigit :)

    the first one appears to just be links.

    which aren't removed.

    the second one doesn't belong in this specific thread, but I will say that no more ads can be removed in skype until 5.x

    Hi Jeffrey.

    I haven't tried Admuncher yet so I have some questions for you:

    Can we use regex, can https be filtered and can in/outgoing http header fields be modified?

    Ad Muncher currently is just the best ad blocking experience you can get, blocking many ads no one else can.

    the 3 things you mention are all coming in 5.x but are only needed for edge cases not for removing the bulk of ads.

    Then I'll patiently wait for the upcoming version and port my project to your said jewel. :thumb:
    Right now, AB+ has what I call bugs, is very limited and Proxomitron isn't working very well on Win7.

    Yes, Ad Muncher is far best ever ad blocker. I also tried so-called ad blockers but they cannot compare to AM. I use AM already for ages with the full satisfaction. Though If I should complain for something it would be release of version 5. It last toooooooooooooo loooooooooooooooooong :D

    Patience is a virtue... Can the current version at least trigger filters only if third-party domains are detected? I'm curious.

    Sure but everything has its limits even patience ... we're talking about v5 more than a year but honestly I understand it ... AM is a two-men company and thus its sources are limited. Anyway I hope v5 is coming pretty soon. I paid the lifetime license last year to cover the upgrade to v5 so awaiting fruits :D

    He probably means adding his own filters to the My Filters tab.

    Just a quick question. I bought AM prior to the changes in licensing. Will I be able to get v5 for free? Or do I have to purchase it again?

    Thanks.
