Hello, I've used AddBlock successfully for years but now , to my utter dismay, It has stopped functioning. I tried unsuccessfully to reset Firefox . Have just gone through the latest StartPage privacy protocol added to Firefox, but I am still beset with beastly adds. Hope you can help, Cordially, Joy

Try downloading Firefox from Mozilla, run it from the folder and see if you have the same issue with the add-on. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

Just to verify... your issue is that you cannot remove the add-on or is it that the add-on is not working?

jonzn4SUSE .

Thank you for your reply but it did not solve problem. The problem is that AddBlock no longer functions despite it being " enabled".

Which ad blocker are you using? What site are you using to verify if the add-on works? Just to verify, you tried the same add-on in Firefox from Mozilla and it still didn't work?

I use ABP Adblock Plus a Firefox extension. I use Startpage as my search engine, also a firefox extension. The exasperating adds are only on YouTube.

The same ABP in my screenshot? A link to the page showing ads on YouTube would be nice. I'm not seeing any ads. see screenshot --> https://paste.opensuse.org/89685461

The adds are video adds. When I wish to view a video I am immediately blocked by a video add until I can click on the little "skip adds" window which appears in the right hand corner of the screen. If the video is longer than a few minutes, the add reappears.

That's not a browser issue, it's YouTube by design. Some ads you cannot skip and others you can in 5 seconds after it starts. Noting you can do about those ads, you will get them in any browser.

If you go to Firefox add-ons and themes page, you will see that Adblock Plus clearly states "Block YouTube - ads and pop-ups & Fight malware."

This it has done effectively for me for the past 17 or more years until very recently.

Either I should be able to rectify the problem, or it's part of the general corruption and downgrading of everything else these days..

Thank you for your reply. If you could explain how I find out who the developer is and how I might contact him, I'd be grateful.

Hi

Before you do that, would you by any chance be using Eset anti-malware software on your computer?

Hi,

No, as a Linux user I've never thought that I needed any anti-malware.
