Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Annoying shockwave add, can't seem to Adblock it

D · 2006-08-21 20:09:31

Running firefox with adblock, and i have almost every ad blocked. However, at this one site, break.com there is this "zap the mosquito and win a laptop prize". Since I can't seem to adblock it I would try to ignore it but the mosquito is buzzing. The ad is form the consumersavingcenter.com. Any suggestion on blocking it?…

Edit: it is actually a macromedia flash ad.

What have you tried?

Tools -> AdBlock -> Preferences -> New Filter: http://*.consumersavingcenter.com/*
[Assuming: Nothing good on their domain...]
