After I updated to the latest version of NoScript (1.9.9.81) AdBlock Plus suddenly stopped working, anyone else with this problem? How do I solve it?

Adblock Plus is still working for me:
Adblock Plus 1.2 with Fanboy's List
NoScript 1.9.9.81

It may be caused by a conflict with another extension.
1) Disable all extensions -- including NoScript -- except Adblock Plus. Does ABP work now? If ABP works, then
2) Disable all extension except NoScript and Adblock Plus. Does ABP work now?
3) General Troubleshooting Instructions

Only now I realized that ABP is still working, but lost all the filters after I updated NS, but I didn't change anything. Is it possible that NS caused this?

Shouldn't be.

There should be backups of the filters in an /adblockplus/ directory in your Profile.
What do the backups show?

No. http://adblockplus.org/en/known-issues

Ok, I added new filters but they just don't work, nothing is getting blocked! I know it's a problem with ABP, but it started when i updated NS, so it's very strange. :(


P.S.: Disabling everything didn't work.
