Description
I'm using a ad blocker (adzhosts) that lists pub sites and returns on the local loop. it works well with Qupzilla, but is ignored by Web +. there is another bug with some site I have to reload the page 2/3 times for it to appear (qwant, 20 minutes ....)

No, that's the right place. It works fine for me using a file from the link I pasted. Can you try that? Also make sure the file is named "hosts" (lowercase) and not "HOSTS" or "Hosts" (as seems to be the default when downloading adzhosts from sourceforge)

Well, still we should identify what's the problem with adzhosts and why it does not work.

After tests: -Qupzilla has ad-block to install by default (shame on me). -Qupzilla + adzhosts is as effective as StevenBlack, It will seem that it is more restrictive than adzhosts. Web + is also more fluid, as expected. So I can say that there is no problem with Web + and you can close the bug. Next time, I will do more testing

The hosts file works just fine for me. I use one from https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts Where did you put the hosts file?
