If you have uMatrix or any other request filtering extensions, you must add moz-extension:// to whitelist.
In uMatrix: Dashboard -> My rules -> matrix-off: moz-extension-scheme true
I see you know this already, but for other people:
For example, there is a thread on reddit about UK users suffering such issue, apparently it was due to an ISP.
@gwarser, I only have request policy and I always had it and it wasnāt a problem. I also added āmoz-extension-schemeā to the whitelist in request policy, and even restarted a browser, but that didnāt help at allā¦ Iām also not in the UK and uBlock Origin works just fine in Opera, so itās not ISP or something.
use moz-extension://: as source instead of destination in RPC
If you really have original RP, then there is no āschemeā part to whitelist. Anyway, you can easily add uBlock āhostā to whitelist. Go to UBO Dashboard, and from RP icon, click on āAllow requests from xxx-xxxx (lot of digits)ā.
Yeahā¦ I did try to do thatā¦ But didnāt work until I disabled request policy, restarted browser and enabled it(with a restart) again. And I use the old request policy(the one that is not ācontinuedā) because the one that is ācontinuedā was breaking thingsā¦
Thanks anywayā¦ Now I wonder why filters update sooo much faster in operaā¦ it takes like 5 seconds to update all filters in opera and about 1-2 minutes to do the same in FFā¦
I Godaddy for email services. When using webmail and attempting to compose a message (new, reply, does not seem to matter) the compose dialog starts to display but then gets an unending busy cursor. Whitelisting the site has no effect. With uBlock add-on disabled, compose works.
The webmail URL is https://email10.godaddy.com
please make alternate icon selection for black themed backgrounds.
tmz.com just shows a black page =(
@gorhill or anyone, please help. Iām trying to block remote content in another add-onās options page, but no matter what I try, itās not working.

No longer possible Firefox WebExtensions Ā· gorhill/uBlock Wiki Ā· GitHub
uBO/webext has limited access to behind-the-scene network requests, unlike uBO/legacy which had full access to all behind-the-scene network requests. For example, you wonāt be able to see (and block) network requests made by other extensions. Related: āSupport moz-extension: urls in MatchPatternā.
Thank you for replying. I see that bug 1271354 was fixed in Firefox 56. Does this mean we can expect the problem to be remedied in uBlock Origin? (Related: issue 2795)
1271354 is fixed in Firefox 56. Wiki - Firefox WebExtensions says itās the reason itās no longer possible to block requests from other extensions.
No. Accessing other extensions request is disallowed for āsecurity reasonsā. Comment 14 is about this. This bug is about accessing āour ownā resources, and this is fixed.
We can start with this: Firefox WebExtensions Ā· gorhill/uBlock Wiki Ā· GitHub
Thank you for the tip.
My experience with it has not been as expected. After initial investigation it can be held responsible for changing DNS settings in router/modem to other than what was set by user. After several scans with different AVs and 3 or 4 OS reinstallation the adware was still persistent. Clicking on any link lead to ad sites and if not one can still see the malware DNS in router/modem. After this addonās removal things are normal.
Can anyone confirm this???
That isnāt what I am experiencing. I just checked the modem/router box from my ISP and the DNS server IP addresses are just what the ISP configures them to be, and I checked my Windows setting for DNS Server IP addresses and those are exactly what I had set them to be.
Did you install uBlock Origin directly from uBlock Origin ā Get this Extension for š¦ Firefox (en-US) or from someplace else? (The en-US part of the URL may read differently if your primary language isnāt English(United States).) In particular, was it specifically āuBlock Originā (the official full name) and not one of the other similar-sounding names, and was it from https://addons.mozilla.org?
Iām unable to install the latest uBlock Origin on Seamonkey 2.48. Kept getting an error about the package being corrupt. Likewise, the add-ons page keeps pestering me to install Firefox. I prefer Seamonkey and would rather not have Firefox + Thunderbird also installed. Iāve managed to somehow install uBlock Origin 1.13.8, but I am not allowed to upgrade to the latest versions, beta or otherwise.
Seamonkey not support webextensions (new format of Firefox Add-ons).
You must install from Github.
Someone even created extension, to update automatically. Read more here: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Firefox-WebExtensions#future-of-ubolegacy
