Still happening on my work connection despite all the ads showing, haven't looked at home.  We have website URL filters in place here, but content is generally not blocked from a site once you're on it, unless it pulled from a blocked url.

I haven't had it recently on GZ, but its just started happening on Wired.com. It seems to be my browser (IE11 on Win10) as it only happens when the browser has been open for a while, and goes away when I restart it. Then again Wired has always been a clunky sod of a site in IE for me.

I have a simple question. What am I missing if I keep the Ad blocker? I mean if I don't whitelisted Geekzone then what will be my cost? 

I know the cost, if I do whitelisted geekzone, lots of annoying ads will cover all my webpage real estate. But my question is, what if I don't?

Whilst not logged in and not running an Adblocker and with it showing adverts!

Says I am running an Ad blocker :-)

For those who have the "You're running an adblocker" message while showing ads... When reporting please make sure you refreshed the page a couple of times (it's cookie-based and one cookie behind). @LennonNZ if you are a subscriber we don't test the adblocker or show the message. If you had the cookie set before logging in then it will still be there when you logoff. 

If you have refreshed the page and still see the message while showing ads it could be that the network you are on is blocking the server used for testing. It could be a company policy, or an OpenDNS server, or a DNS unblocker service, etc. If you are just using the standard ISP DNS, there's no company policies in place then we need to know browser, OS and network. Otherwise we have no way to finding out what goes on.

I logged out and refreshed and the message went away .

I'm getting the ad block message now too.

I've got geekzone whitelisted and am seeing the ads.

I've logged in and out a few times and refreshed the page and deleted cookies.

What network?

What network?

 

Not sure what you mean by that?

My internet provider?

This is on a Windows 10 Pro computer running latest version of Chrome (just updated).

So it worked OK for a while this afternoon but now the message is back again and some features missing due the website thinking I am using an ad blocker.

Have you trying clearing cookies and refreshing the page a couple of times?
