It sort of depends what device you are on and what browser you are using… post a little more information about this and that will give someone the information they need to point you in the right direction.

OK Jeff, I’m using an iPad with safari. I have Norton 360 as a security suite.
It has a built in ad blocker. If I don’t disable the ad blocker, all I get is a white screen. If I disable it, everything works just fine. But until the upgrade I didn’t have to disable it. So as I said before it’s kind of a PIA to disable it for just this forum, then remember to enable it every time I go to another site. And disable it when I come back. Sometimes I get on here 4 or 5 times a day, and have to go thru the process every time. I sure hope your IT guys can fix it.

The adblocker I use on my home PC ( I'm at work ) allows me to "whitelist" specific sites that I trust ( Such as this one ) so that it will manage itself when I go to certain sites that have issues with adblockers.

Same here. Both Adblockplus and Ghostery allows for that option.

Talking about how to stop ads on a forum where they help pay the bills seems counterintuitive to me, but as I said earlier, DuckDuckGo browser, Norton 360 with VPN and Ad Blocker Tracking turned on and I'm having absolutely no problems with ads. I don't see any at all when I'm logged in...

Not relevant here, but the only issue that I do have is that a couple of the fishing forums I frequent occasionally won't allow me access with the VPN turned on...

No ads here. New MacBook pro, Safari browser. No ad blockers, virus blockers. None of that. Have never needed that stuff in 13 years of using Macs.

Amen!

So, looks like if you have a Mac all your problems go away. Cool.
Added an item to my Christmas list.

I read about people who buy a mac and then install anti virus software. That seems to screw up the computer. All I'm saying is I have never used any of that, and I have never had a virus on any of my macs.

And, I do make a really good baked mac and cheese. Maybe I will smoke it sometime.
