I've been using U block origin for quite a while and have been pleased with it's performance until today. For some reason it's not blocking an ad that it previously blocked in AOL in box screen. I tried to add the element but it didn't work, although, I'm not sure if I was doing it correctly. I was able to block the ad content but not the blank ad space bar. See attached screen shot.I would appreciate it if someone would would review the procedure to block an ad. Thanks

For help specifically with the uBlock Origin add-on, you may want to reach out to their community support on Reddit directly for more assistance. uBlock Origin is not a Mozilla-run project.

You can check this element in the Inspector.

You can right-click and select "Inspect Element" to open the builtin Inspector with this element selected.

You can teach Ublock to add something to the blocked list. Check with their support.
