Whitelisting, prefix your filters with "@@" to allow an item normally blocked by another filter through. Credit to OneStop.

- Synchronization (import) with filter file on website or hard drive using URL. Can be synchronized manually or automatically.

- Ability to block DIV sections allowing a much greater range of images to be blocked. Credit to Rueschi.

- Can hide ads on a per site basis instead of globally. Now an option under Adblock's menu. [New]Changes:

* Can hide ads on a per site basis instead of globally. Now an option under Adblock's menu called Support Websites.

* The three different versions (text, icon & button) have now been combined.

* Added preference (Site Whitelisting) to allow all ads on a site if site's URL matches a white filter.

* Added adblock.divcheck preference available in about:config to disable DIV checking.

* Fixed Collapse Blocked Elements preference not being respected and it always collapsing.

* Fixed ads not being collapsed when using the hide ads option.

* When choosing to append imported filter list, duplicates are no longer displayed to make it clear that they are not saved.

* Added the Chinese locale (thanks to Blackdire).

* Added the Czech locale (thanks to Josef).

Whitelist Help

The Adblock Ghastly Whitelist Hack allows the selective un-blocking of URLs that would otherwise be blocked. Whitelist filters start with the @ character repeated twice:

@@http://gmail.google.com/

The above filter is an easy way of solving the occaisional blocking of content iframes in Gmail.

Note that a whitelist filter does not prevent other filters from being processed - for example, the filter:

@@.runescape.com

This filter will allow the ad-containing frames to load on the top and left of the www.runescape.com page, but other Adblock filters can exist to preven those frames from populating with adverts from other servers (like advertising.com).
