I went to this news website and I got a message saying we've noticed you're using adblocker software?

I don't have Adblock Software on my computer so why am I getting this error message?

It's probably just a glitch with the news websites Adblock Detector. Has it done it before on this same website?

The primary cause for the notification to appear is another extension that is preventing JavaScript from running, hiding ads, or blocking trackers and cookies.

 Some of the most common culprits encountered are other ad blockers, Kaspersky Anti-Banner, Ghostery, PrivacyBadger, Disconnect and NoScript.

When you are using adblock it is much easier to browse any website or to watch videos. I faced with the problem of automatically opening tabs and this instruction helped me a lot. There I used to learn more about adblock and how to install it in order to reduce advertisement and to make Internet use much safer.

Sometimes websites mistakenly detect ad-blocking software even when none is installed. This could be due to certain browser settings or extensions that limit tracking or scripting, which the site may interpret as ad-blocking. You might want to check your browser settings and disable any features or extensions that could be causing this issue. Also, looking at total adblock reviews could give you some insight into how ad blockers work and help you troubleshoot your current problem. If the issue persists, consider reaching out to the website’s support team for clarification.
