It appears LJ has gutted that code. The JavaScript file is now empty, although it is still being included into the pages.

If you're using Firefox and have AdBlock Plus, this filter will take care of it:

*/dRev.js

Should block it from any site, not just LJ. As long as the filename stays "dRev.js" ;)

Thank you so much for this information, oh great guru of the code! :)

And I'd never run Firefox without Adblock Plus. :D That, and Tab Mix Plus are my two essentials. :)

I sent a support ticket around the time I saw the first report on LJ. They responded pretty quick for a policy adjustment; it does indeed look like they ripped it out almost immediately when stuff hit the fan. Boy, that NEVER happens, it's kind of nice for a change.

Nicer if they had been competent in the first place, but...

Thanks! I'm also glad to see the LJ staff acted quickly on this. I would imagine that the code eventually returns, although hopefully at least fixed not to apply to paid/permanent accounts....
