   After updating to Adblock Plus 1.3.8, the CBCs videos will not play at all unless I disable Adblock Plus for that page only.
   When I do, I get the annoying and obnoxious ad which CBC has tacked on to the beginning of the video. I am using Firefox 3.6.17, and cannot update this as I am a Mac user with OS10.4.11 (Tiger). Is there a fix for this? Searching the forums produces no result that I can find.

   Reply from Wladimir Palant:

   This has little to do with Adblock Plus but rather with the filters you are using. I suggest you create an issue report for this page (click ABP icon and select “Report issue on this page” from the menu) and post the link to your report in the forum, you will get a response immediately.

   Some websites can detect that adblock is enabled and will not allow access to said page. There are quite a few websites that are doing that one of the may to mention is http://thepiratebay.org/. You can not view the page with adblock enabled. Other then this problem 1.3.8 is great. I hope to see a fix with this problem in the future. Thank you for reading.
