I can not watch video clips on news websites like Fox from Chrome or Firefox but can from Edge which is soooo slow. I have disabled Ad Blocker but still can't.

LunaScape seems more like a developer or QA tool to test their web based products on various web browser platforms because it loads IE, Chrome and Firefox all in one application window (may experience performance issues on thin clients). Google Chrome or Fire Fox has nice add-on's/extensions for blocking pop ups. I recommend Ublock origin. It works great for both, but there is other good ones too, like Ad blocker plus.
As far as I am concerned ads are the most annoying part of internet especially rollover text ads and flash ads
So I have started looking for plugins that can block these annoyances and found one called ad-blocker plus a free plugin in Mozilla Firefox that can block all ads. Click one the link below to go to the ad-blocker plugin page https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865 You should see a page like the one in the image below
Click the add to firefox button if you have trouble installing watch the youtube video for help. Install it and the page with ad posted in the link above looks like the image below Thanks for reading, Sai.
If your on a limited internet connection like me or simply need to have your browsing speed boosted , blocking ads on web pages is really easy to do and works great.
This tutorial is only applicable for Mozilla Firefox users. GET FIREFOX HERE
Okay , so start up your Firefox and select "Tools" from the top options. Now select Add-ons.
This will take you to the add-on screen at which point you need to select "Get Add-ons"
Once there , type "ad blocker" in the search bar and search. Then select ad blocker from the search results.
Now click on the "add to Firefox" button in the right corner and the plug in will install. You may get window asking you to confirm that you wish to install the plug in to which you select install.
The program will now install and you will need to restart Firefox after this has completed.
This program will now block most ads on web pages. To disable or uninstall it later , go back to tools > add-ons> and click disable or uninstall under ad blocker.
Here is a video for an alternative method to install ad blocker if you are having problems. CLICK HERE
It depends on the operating system, internet browser it is installed on, and the actual as blocker installed.
For example, AdBlock Plus (one of the most popular ad blockers) is disabled in Windows 7, installed on Internet Explorer, by right clicking the AdBlock Plus logo and clicking “disable” . But disabling it in iOS, installed on Safari required going into the settings for Safari and “turning off” the ad blocker.
Quick fun side note. Many people want the ad blocker turned off to read a news story on a website. To be able to read that story with the ad blocker on, replace “http://“ (or “https://“) in the URL with “outline.com/“. This also works on some news sites with paywalls as well.
You do not state in your question if your ad blocker is a Mozilla Firefox add-on.
If it is, with a Firefox page open, clicky or tap on the 3 horizontal lines in the upper right corner of the page.
In the drop down window you should be able to find the Add-ons link (icon looks like a jigsaw puzzle piece.) Click or tap on the Add-ons link.
On the Add-ons page, find the entry for the ad block add-on. Note: I use uBlock Origin.
You will see the following "buttons" Options, Disable, Remove. Choose "Disable". If you want to remove the ad blocker entirely, choose "Remove".
Also, If you only want to disable the ad blocker for just some websites, you will need to have the link to the ad blocker display as an icon in the tool bar at the top of your Firefox pages. Then, you can left click or tap on the ad blocker icon to just stop the ad blocker for the particular website.
You have to use one designed for whatever browser you are using. I frequently use Chrome, and have found "AdRemover for Google Chrome" to be excellent.
This may be because you are using an Ad Blocker. Browser addons like AdBlock for firefox and chrome can cause issues with youtube. The reason is because youtube does not load the video until after the ad has played. If you block the ad, the video never gets the signal to load. Hope this helps.
