Question: Gmail ads are not blocked

Ad:

Block rules:

The custom block rules are copied from Fanboy's ultimate list with the octothorpes removed.

The ABP filtering engine in HTTPSB is way behind that of spin-off uBlock. I have decided to spin-off HTTPSB as uMatrix, which will have it's obsolete ABP-filtering engines removed. uBlock and uMatrix will complement each other, each focusing better on their narrower purpose.

My suggestion is:

• install uBlock
• disable ABP filtering (net and cosmetic) in HTTPSB
• disable all the lists which are targeted at ABP filtering (from Spam404 and all the ones below, and remove ABP filters from your custom rules).
• select all the lists in uBlock which you had selected in HTTPSB, there is also a tab for custom rules, just like HTTPSB.

I would expect the Gmail ads to not show up, and you gain more optimisations, and features, and up to date filtering engines. HTTPSB will become significantly leaner.

Oops, I left the element hiding checkbox unchecked. That seems to do the trick. Thanks for the reply though.
