Firefox not displaying AdSense ads [SOLVED]

[iandoug]

Hi all

Second weird problem for the day... last night, FireFox stopped displaying Google Adsense ads. Or it displays them on the odd occassion, but not all the time. Viewing the same site in Konqueror shows the ads.

I run AdSense on my sites so need to see what's showing.

My 2-year-old daughter was fiddling around with the mouse (random movements and clicks) while Firefox was open, she managed to Lock a tab, but I fixed that. But surely she could not have changed some setting that would stop Adsense ads? Other ads work fine.

Only thing I can think of is that Google tweaked the javascript and that broke the ads, but web searches don't reveal anyone else having this issue.

However if I use the Firefox plugin "Adsense preview", it produces ads no problem....

Anyone got any ideas?

thanks, Ian

...okay, found the problem... it's VLC video player. I installed it yesterday to test .3gp movies, but it doesn't play nicely with firefox. Have just unermerged it, and Firefox is once again showing Adsense Ads...

cheers, Ian
