I was hoping that perhaps you guys can change at the rate the first ads appear when the site is first visited? I flash a lot of ROM's so normally when I'm setting up my browser and try to login to mobilism I encounter at least 1 or 2 ads that take 8 to 10 seconds to get rid of sometimes. or perhaps disable them for the log in screen that way I can log in successfully. :)

They came sometimes every page. I Adblocked them, but they began to sneak in again. 8 seconds wait every time.

Had problem with ads loading several times even while I was trying to type in my login. Then every second page at least while signed in. Basically the site was all but unusable. Updating Adblock filters fixed the problem.

Opera 12.11/Win 7 64-bit/Adblock 1.0.6 with EasyList and Fanboy.

This ad generator is WAY too aggressive. Javascript is smart enough to at least pause while an input box is being used, not that an ad pop-up has any business running on a sign-in page.

I've been reading the comments some people posted here...correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't ads essentially "paying" for maintaining the forum online and stuff?
I personally added an exception to AdBlock for mobilism.org...I mean blocking ads won't generate ad revenue, so if ads ARE paying for the forum, just seeing an ad every once in a while (though after every tab I open is a bit too much) is a pretty good exchange for the stuff we get here.

If you are using firefox and ad block plus, and playing with the preferences isn't working, you might try simply removing ad block and then re adding it. I just did that after all the tinkering didn't work and it's back to normal.

In the Exception Rules ( I presume you have got this far ? )
Check your mobilism.org address - if this is not your mobilism address # 93.114.44.238

either find what address your signing in on ?
or paste 93.114.44.238 in your browser and see if it takes you to mobilism

it should show up in adblock under the exception rule . untick it .
you will have to sign into mobilism now on this address not your bookmarked one.
I am no techie but this worked for me.

I've been getting them a lot, as well as an .exe file that keeps popping up on one of the full pages, trying to trick me to download it. I use Firefox.

Also, when accessing this on my ipad or iphone, my browser is almost always hijacked and taken to some seriously hardcore porn site that I have to actually close and start a new window for because the back button only refreshes the page, or it opens up the app store to a porn app.

I will try the add-on manager in firefox, but I have no idea how to stop the porn hijacking on my ipad and iphone.

Really? Wow, I'll have to check that out on my iPad. I didn't think apple allowed porn apps in their store! ;p

Site is totally unworkable now. Updated adblock plus (firefox 16.0.2) but I can't download anything anymore. :-(

Sometimes I ask myself, “Why does that ball keep getting bigger?” And then it hits me…

I started getting this problem after the most recent update to Firefox. After reading these posts, I think I have fixed the problem. Thanks to all for addressing this issue.

Am curious about how you addressed this issue since I still cannot download any ebook without refreshing the pages and waiting forever and forever.

I am having the same problems - ad page appears and have to wait 8 sec on every page click - I use Firefox 16.

Download latest firefox 17, and then added adblocker, still get a the same thing. However i am now accessing via chrome and i only got the ad at startup - been using for 10 mins and hasnt gone to ad again.

I wait the 8 seconds, click, get back to the "regular" page and 10 seconds later I'm kicked out again... I'm using win 7, Firefox 17... I have cookies turned on (but NOT 3rd party cookies). I have Adblock plus running. These setting haven't changed in months.

Like I said, this just started today.... currently the ONLY way I've figured out to get things to work sorta normally is to turn Java & java script off while on Mobilism and then turn it back on when I step out of mobilism for downloads... This is a pain.

I can't seem to find anything in Adblock that allows me to update definitions....


Same Problem Here - Started Today - Renders Mobilism.org completely unusable. 8 second delay every click with a blank countdown page with NO ADS, completely blank.

I'm running the current version of Firefox on Windows Vista Professional with cookies turned on, Adblock Plus Running, and Norton Anti-Virus. Haven't tried to turn off the Java & Javascript yet.
