Adblock updates?

When I updated to Iron 4 I obviously had to re-install the adblock list. I am using
this one at the moment. However, I am finding that some adverts (especially in Yahoo! Mail) are starting to slip back through. Is my adblock list out of date?

Here are a few lines I use for Adblock Plus which specifically block Yahoo! mail crud. You may have to reformat these lines to play nice with the .ini format.
mail.yahoo.com##DIV#ch_col_h1.yui-u.first.colorC7.colorK3
mail.yahoo.com##DIV#emptyFolderContainer
mail.yahoo.com##DIV#gx_invite_others
mail.yahoo.com##DIV#gx_sug_msgs
mail.yahoo.com##DIV#gx_vnews
mail.yahoo.com##DIV#largePane.lpane.pane.largeMessagingPane
mail.yahoo.com##DIV#MIP3
mail.yahoo.com##DIV#searchbox
mail.yahoo.com##DIV#slot_LREC

OK thanks. The updated list has done the trick though.

I personally started using
this add-on. Allows you to use the well known 'Easylist' for adblocking, and allows you to manually block any ads that slip past as well.

Is it me or does the adblock.ini file actually completely blocks adds from loading whereas, due to possible intentional limitations, addons do not - they simply hide these elements and shamelessly call themselves adblockers?
SRWare,
Feature request, if I could simple copy and paste the EasyListUSA into ablock.ini and use it, that would be great.

Does it "block" the ads or just "hide" it?
And where can I download SWIron that is upgradable instead of redownloading every time new versions come?

Could we have an answer for the previous question? I am also interested, does srware iron "adblock.ini" block the ads or just hide them?
