With activated Ad-Blocker you may have Problems on some Sites. You even may want to allow Sites to make money through ads. As far as I know, Firefox Quantum has an build-in ad-blocker, that seems to be active by default. How to turn this thing on and off? For a single Site or global?

The "tracking protection" feature in Firefox is disabled by default, unless you're in a private browsing window, in which case it is enabled. If you want to disable it for private browsing mode, or if you've turned it on previously, this article has directions for how to turn it off.

I was completely wrong - DuckDuckGo plus was installed - And I did't know what it exactly does. Beginner's fault .... I'am sorry.
