Adblock Plus

Hello there,

I use Firefox 20.0, Adblock plus 2.2.3. I've got a couple of other extensions installed, but I don't think that's relevant here. I have Downloadhelper, Status-4-evar and Stay Open Menu installed, latest versions.

My problem is that Adblock Plus blocks the "Win" section on http://www.comedycentral.nl/ , even when it is fully disabled on all pages. The only way to display the "Win" section in Firefox, is to unload the Adblock Plus extension in the Firefox Add-on manager (and refreshing the page). The "Win" section is in the right sidebar of the site.

What you should see with Adblock Plus disabled: http://s11.postimg.org/bhv0i14v7/win1.png
What you actually see with Adblock Plus disabled: http://s3.postimg.org/k9351lknn/win2.png

Steps to reproduce:
1) Go to http://www.comedycentral.nl/ with Adblock Plus disabled, but loaded in the Firefox Add-on manager. See that the "Win" section is missing.
2) Now unload Adblock Plus in the Firefox Add-on manager. Refresh the page http://www.comedycentral.nl/. See that the "Win" section is now present.

That section does not even appear for me if I disable ABP completely.

The "Win Section" should be present after unloading Adblock Plus in the Firefox Add-on manager, and then refreshing the page http://www.comedycentral.nl/. If not, try restarting the Firefox browser after unloading Adblock Plus in the Add-on manager. Then visit http://www.comedycentral.nl/.

If you still cannot see the "Win" section, can you try using Internet Explorer?

Btw, the identical problem is present in Google Chrome 26, so this is not a problem isolated to Firefox.

Ok, I think I will make things weirder now.

Tried that. Even tried Firefox' safe-mode. No luck.

It also does not work for me in IE10.

It works for me in Chrome 26 even with ABP enabled.

The issue is no longer present. I can see the "Win" section now in all three browsers (IE, Firefox, Chrome). I can see the "Win" section with Adblock Plus enabled in both Firefox and Chrome.

I have the same issue. I have adblock plus in Firefox and Adblock in Google Chrome. I have disabled it for several sites, including youtube, twitch and mlg.tv, but ads are always blocked on those sites. Even when I disable Adblock for all sites, it keeps blocking ads. The only way to allow ads is to start a private session (which does not enable adblock at all) or to disable the add-in completely from within settings.

I am currently on Windows 8.1, but the issue was present when I was using Windows 7 too. Google Chrome Version 32.0.1700.107 m, Firefox 27.0.

UPDATE: I figure out why the ads are being blocked. The culprit is not Adblock but an anti-virus add-on. I just had to tell the anti-virus add-on to allow ad-tracking on these sites and problem solved.
