Just tried to access Drudge and was interrupted due to my adblocker.

Anyone else ?

Photobucket is doing the same thing to me now as well.

THIS IS HUGH & SERIES

Here is what to do:

(1) get the addon NoScript also, learn to to use it of course. It can be a little annoying until you get everything set. If frustrated just use the menu item “temporarily allow all this page” and it generally will make the page work as though you were not using NoScript. However for commonly used pages it is best to make all the outside third party pages that you do not like “untrusted” one at a time until your usual sites are working the way you want but much more securely due to not running numerous privacy and security sucking third party scripts.

(2) make drudgereport.com “UNTRUSTED” on NoScript — this will prevent javascript from running on drudgereport. The only things it is really needed for are (a) to “refresh” drudge which it does every 1-2 minutes sometimes — can be annoying, and (b) to run the new style ads!

Without javascript plus with adblock plus (and I use ghostery simultaneously) drudge seems to behave just like its normal old self with the ads properly blocked.

Drudge is blocking me. Guess I’ll stop going there. If enough people stop going maybe he will notice but with a billion hits per day I doubt he will.

I will not turn off my Ad Blocker to visit Drudge. I was seeing ads even with it on before. He has changed something.
Adios!

I use the current version of Firefox and Adblock Plus. I also use NoScript and Ghostery and Drudge comes up just fine. The great thing is the Drudge site doesn’t auto refresh.

This combo I am using also makes Breitbart easy to access without all the junk.

Part of the modern world - they finance themselves via advertisers and advertisers don't want to pay for a billboard that is "dark" 80% of the time.

If I really want to go to such sites, I turn the ad blockers off for them.

Makes one appreciate FR and the concept of users funding the site....we should all

Donate to FR

I googled it and found this

I use firefox, but there may be a similar solution for your browser.

It worked immediately.

Drudge just blocked me.
guess i’ll just have to come here first thing in the morning for now on..

Yes! I copied the warning message and posted it to the Drudge tip box, adding he would lose a LOT of hits if he continued the practice.

You can get to Drudge without the warning with the incognito window in your browser, but that is a pain.
