ad blocking

Hi RJ, the ad blocker accusation indicates that some aspect of the site didn't run as expected, and the site is guessing the possible reason. If it's inside Firefox -- not caused by external security software/services -- here are the things to check: (A) Firefox's Tracking Protection feature: The shield icon toward the left end of the address bar usually turns a bit purplish when content is blocked. Click the icon to learn more or make an exception. See: [[Enhanced Tracking Protection in Firefox for desktop]]. (B) Extensions: Adblock Plus tells you what it is, what many others may block ads: Blur, Disconnect, DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials, Ghostery, NoScript, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin or uMatrix, for example. Usually you can find a toolbar button for each add-on to manage blocked content in a page. If it's not directly on the toolbar, check the Extensions button (puzzle piece button) drop-down list. See: [[Manage your extensions using the extensions button in the toolbar]]. There may or may not be a number on the icon indicating the number of blocked items; you sometimes need to click the button to see what's going on and test whether you need to make an exception for this site.
