Firefox 5

[lewisje]

I just found out via about:permissions and an SQLite browser that there are two more permission types: indexedDB and geo.

[FireStorm]

I am using the latest RELEASE version listed on the front page of the official SpyBot S&D website (v1.6.2.x)

I have run FF, the "entry's" for immunize for FireFox still do not appear...

Hello,

Have you already used your browser?
The needed files for the immunization are only being created after you have started your browser for the first time.
Please surf to a site like PC World for example, so the cookies are being set.

If that does not help please try the new SDImmunize from our version Spybot 2.0. You can download it here.

Best regards

Sorry - hadn't noticed the replies to the thread. I am using Spybot S&D 1.6.2. Still getting the problem.

I just found out via about:permissions and an SQLite browser that there are two more permission types: indexedDB and geo.

Also the MDN docs say there are two more: font and media.

Also the actual permission names are objectsubrequest and xmlhttprequest, it's just that Adblock Plus uses abbreviations in its filter syntax.

I was misled by the ABP syntax, because for a while I thought there was also a background permission type, but instead there are these 20, not all of which work in all versions of Firefox:
cookie
document
dtd
font
geo
image
indexedDB
install
media
object
objectsubrequest
other
ping
popup
refresh
script
stylesheet
subdocument
xbl
xmlhttprequest

The options in green appear to be valid for Firefox 2, the black options were added in Firefox 3, the orange options were added in Firefox 3.5, and the purple options were added in Firefox 4.
Also, I have tested and domains with the trailing dot are considered distinct from domains without one (blocking google.com does not block google.com.).

Additionally, if a certain domain is blocked, so are all subdomains (blocking google.com also blocks www.google.com and encrypted.google.com), just as in the Restricted Sites list (and unlike the HOSTS file), and I imagine that some of the Immunization entries for "Domains" and "Secure Domains" and the Firefox immunizations could be optimized with this in mind, like if a certain domain is included in the Immunization list then no subdomain is also included.
