*Sometimes* when I come to armorama, I get this message: "Using an ad blocker?"

Just below the armorama banner there is a subwindow with scrolling images of recent articles and to its right a subwindow with an ad. But *sometimes* I get a message in this window that asks if I'm using an adblocker and please to enable the site.

I do not have an adblocker on this machine. I use the latest version of Firefox (with no add-ons) on a Mac. Is there something I can toggle in a setting that would allow armorama to get credit with the advertiser for my site visits?

It's not really an issue for my experience of the site, just trying to help if I can....

I really not the expert in setting-up Mozilla options, especially on Mac, but you may try this one:

Find "Options"
Then choose "Privacy & Security"
Then find "Permissions"
Uncheck "Block pop-up windows" option

And don't forget to restart your browser.


Hope that helps

Have you tried using the Mac native Safari browser? Also, are you using the latest version of Catalina OS on your Mac?
