Sudden ads on Drudgereport.com

[Roger]

I visit Drudge report from time to time.

Over the past two weeks I'm seeing ads that 'sit over' that page's content.

>From http://www.standunited.org, from http://www.tmn.today - those
seem to be the biggest offenders.

I am using UBlock and AdBlock Plus and Ghostery...

I entered both into UBlock and AdBlock Plus so "if" I click on the ad
the webpage itself is blocked. But not the ad which blocks a lot of
content.

No such ads on Fox or CNN...

Opening "page source" for Drudgereport I don't see any entry for either
of those ads.

Thoughts on stopping this? Is it purely Drudge? Or?

Why use 2 different ad blockers? I found uBlock Origin to be great for
blocking not only ads, but trackers, web bugs, and general nuisances.
You can also add a personal blocklist.

Just block them via your hosts file.  As you are using Windows of some kind, I suggest put these two entries in your hosts file:

127.0.0.1    standunited.org
127.0.0.1    tmn.today

Your hosts file is located here:

<C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc>

When you save the file after you have added these two lines into it, make sure it is saved as "hosts"  without any extensions.

Good luck.

I visited twn and see they dropped a cookie on me. Nothing showed on
Drudge but I have noticed there before ad for sites I had just visited
popping up. I'll delete cookies on FF exit and when this happens,
during the session.

I have had a similar, but different problem; hope somebody can help.

When I go to drudge, it loads, then I get the "something happened, check
your adblocker" page. I get NO NoScript bar, so I think this is
something different.

I went into settings and added drudge as an exception everywhere I
could; same problem.

Did drudge do something or did a FF update do something?

Any way to debug this?

Thanks!

How was he to (how did you) find that those are the offending sources?
