When will the adBlocker/Ghostery issue be resolved? I don't want ads. Ads prevent my shows from streaming smoothly & are endlessly annoying & redundant.

Whenever I go to sites such as the ones from Comedy Central I get an error. After the first segment loads I get the message "your content will return shortly" but it never returns. Is there an update for this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled and updated firefox and AdBlocker/Ghostery nothing helps...

I know someone created a work around for ad blocking software. Sadly people wouldn't want the software if we weren't brow beaten into rage because of endless repetitive ads. Honestly, the more I see the ad, it makes me not want buy into the product and avoid the website.

Please correct the issue with the Ad Blockers or at least make sure every ad has an option to skip.

Not sure of any known issue with Adblock, can you please elaborate?

Adblock Plus & Ghostery, have issues. Whenever the first segment of a show, for example The Daily Show, reaches the point of the first commercial, it says "your content will return shortly" but never does. It just remains on a black blank screen. The only way to avoid this interruption is to turn off or remove adBlock Plus or Ghostery. Then the show will continue but with those heinous ads.

People have forums of this issue all over the place. Just google "Adblocker your content will return shortly". This has been going on for a while.

Please reach out to the developers of those addons then. They are third-parties and not developed by Mozilla.
