AllMusic Still Says I Have an Ad Blocker:
If ads are hidden or unable to be displayed, it is usually due to a few things:
- An adblock extension (such as AdBlock, AdBlock Plus etc) which blocks advertisements.
- An extension that turns off Javascript (NoScript, etc) that shuts off one of the technologies that we use heavily on the site (and also is used by advertisers to display ads).
- An extension that blocks tracking or cookies.
- Javascript being turned off in your browser. (How to enable Javascript)
- You may have disabled your ad blocker but you still may need to clear your cookies or your browser cache to have it kick in.
- There are other things we have found which can trigger the ad block detection window:
- The Opera browser (which natively blocks ads). Some tips.
- Firefox Tracking Protection (which can block advertisements and the way advertisers use cookies).
- The Ghostery extension can sometimes be seen as an ad blocker or a tracking blocker. Tips.
- Smaller browsers like SeaMonkey and Torch may be giving users trouble.
- The Disconnect extension may be blocking ads from appearing on the site.
- The HTTPS Anywhere extension may be blocking ads from appearing on the site.
- Some ISPs (Internet Service Providers) or college campuses may be blocking ads on your behalf, which would cause the message to display.
- Occasionally very slow internet connections will not allow the ad calls to complete and can cause the message to display.
- Internet Explorer 11 has something called "Protected Mode" by default which can trigger the message.
- If all else fails this page has a number of other good steps.
