ad keeps timing out

[supernova_00]

some ad from b.bluetime.com keeps timing out and causing the erorr connecting popup.

actually i think none of the ads are working now

I'm afraid you lost me on this one supernova_00, not that it's hard to do.

For me, the ad at the top is staying blank today. And no, I'm not blocking it. Google's ads are on my ad filters's exclude list (aka, DO render them).

They are not working for me on any of the sites that I have seen these ad's on, so I do not know. It's not cool though...

The same thing has been happening to me since yesterday. Annoying as hell.

If you block Neowin's ads, then you are a moron. :sleep:

Xen: I have and will never block neowin ads. I think I speak for almost all members here about this.

Well, just a tip for another Firefox user: you can stop the annoying error message popups and instead have error pages come up...

Just go to about:config and set browser.xul.error_pages.enabled to true.

I know it doesn't quite address the real issue, but it'll stop those annoying popup messages.
