    If you need to have ad's why is it half of them don't run right. I just tried to have a game and a Nissan ad run over 45 seconds and couldn't understand a thing on it. Can they be fixed to run the way they are suppose to.

    Can you take a screenshot of the add you are referring to? Also, we do recommend clearing your cache and cookies if this ad continues to give you troubles.

    Install adblock. Ad Guard is the best if it is available for your browser. Go to extensions/add-ons, search ad guard or adblock, install, and no more ads, ever :-)

    If you're on Maxthon, they only have their own and it doesn't block anything.

    Not so. Adhunter ensures that I never see an ad anywhere.

    The newer versions of Comodo Dragon have the extension privdog which not only blocks 95% of the ads but it also blocks tracking cookies.

    In which respect did it not run right?

    Which duration was indicated?

    Why did you not understand it?

    Anyone ever research the effect AdBlock has on the game client? Here's one article:

    Adblock Plus is probably the reason Firefox and Chrome are such memory hogs

    I use Maxthon 3 when I watch videos and it is loaded with ads. And adhunter is enabled. 

    Andyson....you are right about adblock. It is a load. I switched to adguard and I use Ghostery which blocks all cookies. My adobe settings manager is always empty.
