Adblock Plus

[Joe Forster/STA]

I could reproduce exactly the same the problem with Firefox 43, but only with Adblock Plus enabled. (True, nothing happens if you press Continue.) If I disable Adblock Plus - not even restarting Firefox is required, just reload the page -, the ad gets displayed, I skip it and download the file.

(Funnily enough, I also chose the page of DOOM [2016] for testing, even before looking at your screenshot. )

Could you try an older version of Firefox? Perhaps, newer Firefoxes themselves block some pages (malware blacklist?), even without the help of Adblock Plus. Also, create a new Firefox profile, with default settings, and try again; if you can download files then it's something in your current settings that blocks this page.

[...] Actually, I could download files with Opera 12.18 and very restricted default settings, eased off for these particular sites. It may be cookies being blocked...

We are not "fed up" with users using an adblocker (I am using it myself for some types of sites) and we in no way try to stop users from using an adblocker (even though it really hurts us with >50% adblock visitors...)

The problem described is a known "problem" when using an active adblocker and should not be a problem when it is disabled! I am also using the latest FF.

It is not caused by GCW but it is a "bug" from Adf.ly adblocking page!

This problem has already been reported some time ago to Adf.ly but for some reason they have not fixed this yet...

Their "Continue" button has been working fine before, but this system broke down because of a new filter-rule which is in use in ABP/uBlock/etc.

So better blame this new filter-rule for crapping up...

I'll try to contact Adf.ly again to have this fixed

Just tested it again with FF and it works perfectly fine using FF & ABP disabled, with ABP enabled it shows the picture below




In Chrome + uBlock (enabled) the Adf.ly adblocking page is filtered too much by uBlock causing the non-functional "Continue" button, see below




@ nimd4: As for a solution for your problem, you should also disable ABP for: gamecopyworld.click
If the problem still persists then set ABP to the default settings & filters/lists
And maybe you are running 2 adblockers at the same time (e.g. ABP + uBlock)

TYVM for the replies, guys!..

Alright, so, teh AdFly account details have an option: "Stop Adblock users: Yes No (what is this?)" which is, unfortunately, enforced.

Not having any luck, for some reason, can't figure out what's the trigger; how IceDragon thinks that Adblock Plus is installed (http://imgur.com/a/7iRqp), when it is not: http://imgur.com/a/CHryC. :-/

... I suppose that I'll -just- throw-on Opera, or something & give it another whirl (because, what else to do; heh. )

P.S.
Something RLY strange is going on, usually I'm in control over the PC - but, in this case, I'm clueless, stumped. Download page displays broken images, while they're loading just fine - on their own. Somehow this Window$ 10 b0x got screwy, meh. Upped those screens, Attachments:
