Hi, I was asking people some questions on yahoo answers. Someone posted a link and told me to click on it to find out more about the topic, and I did. My conscious told me not to, but I did anyways. I forgot what the link is called because whoever posted it, has deleted it. (more fishy, but too late!!!). This is the link: http://www.2ty.in/39ja (DO NOT OPEN, maybe!) I'm not sure whether Adblock plus is having a bug after Firefox is updated to its newest version or not....but it is after I noticed those ad's appearing below yahoo answers questions, that I realized my Adblock + has stopped working. I also noticed that Ad's will load on gaming sites (before the game starts), and on yahoo videos... with Adblock+ activated, I do not see these ads. But right now, it says Adblock+ is activated, but it's not blocking the ad's. I'm not sure whether or not a virus made it do this. I have been going on some random websites like kongregated.com (gaming sites). I do not know why it is doing that. L

Hi Gary R, the ads still appears on yahoo answers, but I think I have found a way to fix it(but have to do it every time I get on) without redownloading the AdBlock Plus all the time. I go to my add-ons page, and disable, and then re-enable the AdBlock Plus. Thank you for helping me!!!
