I realized that the "update function" is exhausted. It's spring and many sites like to appear in a shiny new dress. There are quite a few filters to adapt, and the MergeMe got rather large already.


So, until i get a new version ready, here is the rewritten Google ad filter. It turned out (over at prox-list) that people with US IPs can get huge ad blocks.

Code:

[Patterns]
Name = "Google: Remove Ad Links     5.03.22 [sd jd] (d.s)"
Active = TRUE
Multi = TRUE
URL = "$TYPE(htm)(www.google.|216.239.|66.102.[#0:15].|64.233.1[#60:91].)"
Limit = 16384
Match = "<("
"("
"table[^>]++(width=[23][50]%$SET(1=width)|height=40$SET(1=height))"
"|!-- Strip Me -->$SET(1=strip)"
")"
"("
"*</table >(^ <table)"
"|(*&$SET(0= <!-- Strip Me -->))"
")"
")"
Replace = "\r\n<!-- PROX-S: Removed by Google Ad Links Filter (\1) -->\r\n\0"
"$SET(sSpec=$GET(sSpec)\1.)"

It removes ad blocks of unlimited size. It's a recursive filter, that cuts the block in 16k pieces and removes them. If anyone is still seeing ads with this, then please post back.
