Google's AdSense Team Fixes Ad Filter Bug

Yesterday, I reported that the Google AdSense Competitive Ad Filter Not Working. That meant, if you had a list of ads you wanted to block, i.e. MFAs, competitors, etc. those ads were running, even though you blocked them.

Matt Cutts commented telling us he notified an AdSense representative.

It appears that AdSense has fixed the issues, one WebmasterWorld member received an email response back from AdSense saying;

I just received a reply to the email I sent to AdSense Support last night. They said they've resolved the filtering issue but to allow up to 24 hours for it to take effect and if I'm still seeing filtered sites after 24 hours, to let them know.

So hopefully soon, you should no longer see those ads you don't want, running on your sites.
