Ad Blocker Not Working on ZeroHedge site
Posted: Tue Dec 04, 2018 2:27 pm
I've been quite pleased with SlimJet's ad blocker, but one of the sites I frequent has found a way to defeat it.
For years, I've used ZeroHedge (https://www.zerohedge.com) as a primary news source, particularly for finance. Up until about a month or so ago, the SlimJet ad blocker worked perfectly on the site.
No longer. The ad blocker shows twenty-some ads being blocked, but the site refuses to load completely until it can start serving ads, and they just keep coming, completely eating all the bandwidth and making the site basically unusable.
The ad blocker works perfectly on all other sites.
I don't know what Slimjet version I'm using (where do I find that info?), but I've got it set to update automatically once a month.
Many thanks for any suggestions.
