I have been watching currant episodes on the CW website. No problems. No changes on my MacBook Air recently, no ad-ons etc.

Today I went to the site to watch one of the latest episodes and it tells me:

Oops, you have an ad blocker enabled!

To watch this episode, please disable it and refresh the page.

So I went to "tools" click on the Add-ons, then "extensions" then I disabled the (ABP) adblock plus. (Even though it had been actividated and caused no interference with watching my shows before)

Then I refreshed the page and it still comes up that I have an ad blocker enabled. So I restarted the computer. Same result. What should I do?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

While still in Safe Mode,
