Hey freelancers!
I have a question for you all. We've been talking about adblock and ad blockers previously, and this time it's about AdBlock, but, I have troubles with it.. Or at least it seems to be some kind of problem.
Previously, from the first time I've used it until very recently, like a week ago or something, I get tons of popups when I visit different sites, even though I still have AdBlock activated.
At first, I thought it was due to AdBlock being out of date, so I obviously updated it. . However, that didn't solve it. - I still get these annoying popups, and there's literally a bunch of them at the same time.
Is there anything I can do to skip all these ads?
Best Regards,
hitmeasap

I use AdBlocker Ultimate and I haven't had any problems with pop ups. I've actually gone to my own websites and gotten mad because some of my ads didn't show up and I forgot that I had AdBlocker Ultimate up and running lol
What websites are you going to when you're seeing these pop ups?
Is there an option for you to add in websites for your ad blocker to check and update their programming to block ads?
Is there a section that allows you to add special websites to blacklist in order to block everything? This may affect all the images from loading, but might help with the few websites that you're seeing these annoying pop ups on.
Pop ups definitely are annoying and I feel your pain. Annoying ads that slowed my page load times are the main reason I have my ad blocker running in the background to nuke them all
After facebook started setting up their system to avoid all ad blockers I noticed more and more webmasters and programmers setting up something to do the same thing. This could be the reason you're seeing more ads, popups in particular, when you're browsing around online Maybe you can check to see how people are still blocking facebook ads and see if you can use a similar system to block the pop ups you're seeing when online?
I think that if you ran 2 different ad blockers, or switched your ad blocker, would be the easiest way to solve your problem. A lot of ad blockers out there are free so you don't have to worry too much about that. But if you're dedicated to a specific one, it could be difficult breaking your loyalty lol.
I'll come back to check and see if you have any updates on what you've done to block these annoying pop ups Hmmmm it sounds like you may need to look into a new ad blocker, or just a blocker that focuses on pop ups.
