I am getting adblock error on faucets, but I do not have adblock

[ragtimebetty]

I use Faucethub and several faucets offered their regularly such as rainpool and some decent ones I have bookmarked that pay to FH.

I am running win7, Kaspersky, Premium Malewarebytes

I was using firefox purely for faucets, no adblock but kaspersky safe browser installed and everything had been working fine This morning (no updates) I got an adblock error message.

I updated everything, ran all scans I could scan, restarted, etc, still error

I installed a new browser, clean with no-addons or anything imported (Vivaldi) - same error, I uninstalled FF and reinstalled fresh, same error
I then Installed and set up a Virtualbox running debian and installed a clean chromium install, thats a new and different os than I running, a new browser with nothing to pull anyback ups from and I am still getting the adblock error on several sites.

Any Ideas on how to solve?

[I have chrome and opera installed in windows for different non-faucet things, they do have adblock installed, I do not use them to facuet nor do I import from them to a browser I wish to faucet on]  *note:  I will not disable malwarebytes or AV, too many sketchy sites and I had no issues up until today.

Hmm sometime i happen to me on my faucet too, more often on chrome. But just wait 1 day or more, without doing anything then it will back to normal

If you have properly run a debian in virtualbox and got the same error,  it's not from your side. What sites are you using?
Might be some viruses in your computer, some forced adons.

That matter is saying you that get away from faucets   Waste of time ,but, newbie friendly.

Maybe its a false alarm or some ads are blocking by kaspersky you need to try adding this faucet site into exclusion site from kaspersky settings, then restart the browser and lets see if problem still exist.

I have restarted, rebooted, ran virus scan, malware scan, re-installed 2 browsers and ran in a newly setup VM with a linux operating system (which my av/malware do not run on because they are windows only)

Only thing I can think of is maybe your ISP decided to block it or your IP was accidentally blocked. Since you tried all those things and it still doesn't work it kinda seems like it's IP related.
The adblock error message you get doesn't necessarily have to be because of adblock and could just be a standard error message you get when the specific reason can't be identified.

If you have a second computer available (with a different public IP) you could try checking there, or if you're on DHCP try releasing your IP and fetching a new one maybe?

Try disabling all your plugins in Chrome/Firefox, or whatever browser you're using, then re-enable each of them one-by-one to see if any of them are responsible. Secondly, see if your AV is stopping it. Third, are you surfing behind a proxy or 3rd-party DNS service provider (e.g. OpenDNS)? I've had issues with various combinations in the past, and these are generally the first set of troubleshooting  ideas I use.

Sounds like the site you are trying to use is being far too aggressive in it's adblock detection.

What site is it?

The sites I am having the issue with are sites I haveused before (rainpool, alekscoin, luckybits).  I do not have this issue on facuets I have never visited.  MexicanTarget said it was my cookies, but I have re-installed fresh browsers, ran a different browser on a different operating system inside a virtural machine, deleted cookies ect and still getting the error

Nothing had changed on my computer from being able to use to getting the error.  I am not suing proxy, not using 3rd party DNS, its not my AV.
The browsers I have tried while still getting the error are clean install, no cookies, no add-ons, no pug-in, completely vanilla.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled new browsers, tried on linux where my AV does work (virtual machine) with vanilla browser (no addons, no anything) and still getting the error only on the faucet sites I have previously used
