I was working on a task this morning..and I kept getting problems with the site not functioning correctly, I never put two and two together until later. It was the adblocker which was wreaking havoc. Many times if you are working on something it tells you to disable adblock, but I was convinced I had malware or a virus or something..after running malware and anti virus and finding nothing it finally occurred to me..what it was. I had even called tech support..they told me to try another browser..which I did to no avail..I would have thought they might have mentioned adblocker as it is commmon enough and saved me some time..but oh well..fixed now... Sometimes the simplest solution to a problem is the easiest one.

@snowy22315 I have adblocker off on Swagbucks and a couple others so I can watch a show, if I happen to miss it on the CW. It won't play it if adblocker is on. So, if it's beneficial to me, I turn it off.
