hi!

i had the same problem, i guess you have adblock plus running?

put in following two lines in the exeption rules, then it'll work again:

@@|http://www.eztv.it/

@@|http://www.eztv.it/frontpage.php

|

change h x x p to h t t p

greets, masht.

nope, disabling or adding the exception rules did not help.

one thing though, i had been using ff and adblock plus for quite a while and
had been visiting eztv without any issue untill a couple of weeks ago.

hi dm,

i'm also having problems viewing eztv.it from firefox 2.0.0.11. the page loads
up ok, but the "names" of shows and its "mirrors" links have disappeared.
anybody issued this and if so anybody determined the problem?

i have disabled adblock but it makes do difference, but when using the plugin
ietab i am able to view the page. seems really weired to me, and has been going
on for several weeks now.
i think it maybe down to site code incompatibilities with some firefox versions.

regards,
sun

nothing has been changed to the front page... the front page is generated every
minute or so (frontpage.php is a semi static html page)

sometimes the scrape for the page doesn't complete 100% and you may get an
incompleted page being displayed to you.

we have 0 ads, so adblockplusmegastopper or whatever you may be using will not
be of any help.

thanks for your replies aydin1954 & novaking.

i understand there are no ads on here, its great, thanks! but i keep it on as
unfortunately a lot of general sites do.

i have found the problem and have a recommended fix/solution.

well on debug i can confirm that its the following problem:

using adblock plus with jamesplucinski.com filter!!!

it blocks the following code on any website:

#a(onclick^=javascript:urchintracker)

and http://www.eztv.it/frontpage.php

has source for e.g.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
<a
href='http://www.bt-chat.com/download.php?info_hash=910b4d0701e81a5d1ba851962ca67c6f07ac2d22

\\\\\\\'
onclick="javascript:urchintracker('/torrent/910b4d0701e81a5d1ba851962ca67c6f07ac2d22\\\\\\\');\\\\\\\"><font
color='#cd4141'>monster quest s01e10 ws dsrip xvid-aaf</font></a>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

notice the "onclick="javascript:urchintracker"

this is blocked by adblock as it allows vistor click tracking or something.

so disable this filter through adblock plus preferences and everything works fine!

hope this helps anyone having this problem! enjoy!

regards,
sunny

urchintracker is a feature of google analytics. why adblockminus would block
such a thing is beyond me. this allows us to determine how many times a torrent
has been downloaded via our site.

hi!

i had the same problem: on adblock plus i opened the blockable items, there i
found one in red (blocked), so i added this item to the exeption rules. problem
was solved for me. maybe it has to do with the filter lists you subscribe to.

cheers, masht.

you have exactly described the problem that i am having with my ff. so, this
tells me it\'s not unique to my pc. i agree it can be many issues like coding
issues, plug-in incompitability, broken ff update etc. i guess as it does not
seem to be very widespread i will have to keep using ie for now until a ff
update or something.

hey, yeah, i've been having problems with this exact problem for weeks now, but
thought it was just mine, so was using ietab to get the torrents. the adblock
fix mentioned above was exactly the problem. it now works fine. many thanks

are you using filter subscriptions? i'm asking, because i never had that filter.

i don't use those filter subscriptions, because they tend to have unwanted
effects/updates every now and then.
