Ads Load and Disappear with ABL

Unread post by CharmCityCrab » 2015-12-09, 21:18

Hey, just a quick question:

I've noticed that when first loading pages on Pale Moon with Ad-Block Latitude installed, that sometimes ads will appear briefly and then disappear as the page continues to load. Most often, this happens shortly after launching the browser. Is this expected behavior? A bug? A potential problem with my personal setup?

This is expected behavior with v3.0.* of ABL because of its bootstrapped/lazy-loading nature.
Come 3.5.*, this should no longer happen because of the change in architecture that loads the extension in its entirety before any pages are loaded.
