Update -- CNN Friendly Video

Updated the script so you can use the old or new method. The old method will replace all anchors with a link directly to the stream. The new method uses CNN's video player but bypasses ads.

The Salon Battle

The never ending battle with the Salon script continues. In the process of looking into why the script doesn't work with Opera, which I've figured out and will try a fix and enter a bug report with Opera, I found out the FF script was also failing. Turns out that ad code from judo.salon.com is preventing the GM script from running. I'm looking into this now. A quick fix is to resolve judo.salon.com to 127.0.0.1 in the host file on your PC.

Update -- Salon.com

Ok, Salon is playing with cookies/JS? That's just my guess. I rewrote the Salon Premium Pass so instead of spoofing cookies I follow their click path.

Update -- FoxNews.com Friendly Video

Ok, this was fun to figure out. FoxNews.com has gone to flash video so I had to figure out how to interact with flash from JS.

Salon Premium Pass update

I updated the Salon Premimum Pass user script. There is a case where their JS will mark your cookie bad. I test for the bad cookie and reset it.
