A little change... Instead of using folha.com.br in the second item, I wanted to put www.zerohora.com

Re #8: On Superdownloads' Camino entry, they link to a specific mirror for download. This is strongly discouraged by us. We'd prefer they link either to http://caminobrowser.org/download/releases/1.5.5-MultiLang/ or http://download.mozilla.org/?product=camino-1.5.5&os=osx&lang=all ... Additionally, they link to the en-US version instead of the one that would be in pt-BR. Before adding them, we'd ask that you contact the site and try and get the link changed. Whether or not they change it, the site is still approved, but please try and get them to link to a more appropriate site.

(Also, the mirror they link to is in Utah, US, which is especially bad...)

Thanks for submitting and sorry this took so long. I'll leave this bug open for comments on #14 and/or a different recommendation. If there isn't one, we can close this out as FIXED.

About the bookmark #8: I'll contact Superdownloads and see if they can change it. I've already added Camino multi-lingual to the website but it will take between 30 and 60 days (!) until the app appears on their pages.

Wired can be exchanged for http://www.webinsider.com.br/ which has a content quite similar to Wired.

Switching Wired with webinsider.com.br is approved.

Resolving this bug as FIXED.

Another side note: I didn't see too many offenders, but if you want to run through the sites with adblocking on and see if any ads get through, that'd be awesome. We don't have as much coverage in international sites as we do with English sites.

Sure! I'll certainly do that! How much time do I have left until Camino 1.6 release?
Depending on that, I could make a quick list now and then increase it for future releases as it may take some time to do a good list with almost every ad address in Portuguese websites that get through the blocker.

We'll probably just include an adblocking update in 1.6.1. I don't think you'll get an update to adblocking before then. You can add new requests in bug 421850 (or whatever new bug gets filed for April or May depending on when Smokey has time).
