I've noticed since the update to 41 that Firefox will block some adsense ads from time to time, but no always. When this happens Firefox shows a icon on the address bar reading "Firefox is blocking content on this page". and "Insecure content".

If I run Firefox in safe mode, I still get the same problem. The pages are served over http, not https if that matters. I can disable protection manually and it works, but I wonder if that's a problem with some insecure ads served by Google, or that Firefox incorrectly reports some ads as insecure.

Correct - http://www.gstatic.com - is a non-secure server and Firefox doesn't like mixed content like that on an otherwise secure page.

hi, i couldn't reproduce that issue on a spot check - you might want to have a look in the security tab of the firefox web console to see if any mixed content warnings that would hold further clues show up once the issue occurs...

Thanks, I could see the ad tries to load a Flash file from http://www.gstatic.com. So maybe the ad is loaded from an https link, and it then loads http data, which explains why Firefox blocks it, is that right?

Web Console screenshot attached.
