Groovinads doesn't let this forum's pages finish loading

Post by KNTRO » 2015-05-16, 02:23

Hi there,

I allow all ads to display in *.palemoon.org. However I've just get noticed ads from *.groovinads.com aren't allowing Pale Moon forum's pages to quickly load. The throbber keeps active for around 30 seconds to 1 minute after all other elements have been fully loaded.

I'm blocking all ads again.

Ads are loaded asynchronously, so even if they don't fully load right away it shouldn't be blocking.
If they are blocking, please let me know, and I can report it to Google and/or block the publisher (if it's not resolved).

It is the round dotted "Activity Indicator" in the Customize window that you have to drag to where you want in the browser. Mine is to the right of my Home (house looking) button.

"Throbber" is actually just the name of an animated image indicating there is activity. The rotating "tab circles" when pages are loading are throbbers too.
