Video problem

Post by MST »

Hi
Iron seems to be having a problem with CBS.com video player.I get a message that says,an adblocker is blocking it.This happens only on this network,all others work well.Not using an adblock plugin.Any ideas?

That one has been giving me a problem for months now. CBS videos all of a sudden wouldn't play anymore.
And it's not just in Iron. I have that problem with several version of Firefox's and IE8 as well. And it's not just the CBS site. Anything that has videos of programs from CBS have that same error message. I have disabled adblockers, flashblockers, and the hosts file and still get the same error message. I even ran across. one site that insisted that I had to 'update' to version 9 of Flash(wich is all of a year or more old!).
Still scratching my heads as to why. But I sure as hell am not going to go to the pay sites to see them!

Just visited CBS with the new Iron version and videos did play. However, the adblock.ini file was blank and after loading the latest fanboy file into it, the videos failed to play. So that looks to be the issue!
