Times of India Ad block issue

try uBlock Origin maybe

I read Timesofindia on Firefox and facing this weird issue of Adblock in Firefox.

The Homepage opens perfectly, but when I try to open a news url..all I get is a Adblock detected page.


Even though I have removed Adblock plugin from Firefox the issue still persists.

The same issue is in Chrome.


Any workaround ?

It works on IE but not FF & Chrome

Try creating a new profile in Firefox using "firefox -P" and load that profile then check again whether it runs or not.

Do the same for Chrome if possible.

If it runs in the new profile, that means that some extension is to blame or probably adblock did some changes in the config of the previous profile that is interfering with the TOI site.

TOI works with uBlock origin enabled however I remember very well that it didn't work last time I checked. But other news channels are not working for eg NDTV. These days, it has become a trend to block ad block.

One of my friend tried bypassing that and he was able to do by blocking a specific script but I assume it'd not be possible for every page to be automated. I also tried a solution which was quite popular (as per Google), but it also didn't work.

Disabling Javascript usually works.

TOI is working here with uBlock Origin.

Disabling javascript works for ndtv with the same.

Don't read Times of India.

Or, install NoScript plugin to block their stupid adblock detectors.

TOI epaper or site??
Both works fine for me.
Using AdBlock Plus and ublock.

maybe update browser,or reinstall ,or cclean
i dont read toi,read other.

I feel we should stop visiting sites as such.

I hate sites which force you to change your personal browser preferences for viewing them. We should boycott such sites. I am providing a solution/workaround :

Let the page load - wait for the Adblock warning page - press refresh on right hand side and while loading just press the 'X' beside address bar to stop the page to load fully. Now you can read that page. (The pop warning loads after the whole page is done so you don't miss anything apart from the blocked adds and the warning.

It works for me in Firefox.

Toi has this problem in Firefox.
The site is much sensitive like their Newspaper !
LOL !
It opens easily in opera.

There is no problem regarding loading of the site TOI in firefox but the issue is how to get rid of the NAG which says please disable your AdBlocker.

^^^^ doing that "refresh and stop before web page load" method everyday when i see Anti adblocker. Mostly on file sharing sites.

^there is add on on Firefox for scripts you can use it, Greasemonkey add on. Used it for orkut & Facebook. You can try that. Very good scripts available.

i used uBlock Origin and with TamperMonkey AntiAdblock script.

Still NDTV is showing adblock detected messages.

any suggestions?

Search Google for Anti AdBlock

Indian News Anti Anti-Adblock Add-on works flawlessly.
