Info for Firefox Users.

I noticed the last few days, that the file library banner that shows the new files at the top of the Railworks America pages, wouldn't show the updates since April 3rd.
It turned out to be a new filter added to Adblock Plus. A person needs to disable Adblock Plus here at RWA.
That is all, Eric.

I have plain vanilla AdBlok and the banner I think you're writing about is in full view. Interesting . . . or not.

In my case the banner was there, it just hadn't updated in almost two weeks. I had a hunch and disabled Adblock Plus here at RWA, then I refreshed the page I was on and viola, it immediately showed the new files in the library.
Unless it was all a freak coincidence and Bob just happened to update it right then... I'm not sure how that banner works. IE does it automatically update, or does someone have to enter new info into it manually.

I believe that. Adblock Plus has more than one filter option. I could try a different filter, but I'm not having issues with any other website and this one doesn't need ad blocking anyways.
