Just saw your latest post. I have heard of Duck Duck Go, a lot like Google but more focused to "across the pond" users unlike Google which is mostly USA ro North America focused (although they are doing better in the last few years). That is great (for the site that is) that you found the issue and I greatly appreciate you allowing ads on the site. It helps us out a lot. If you ever see an ad that is too obtrusive please let me know. I'm thinking about making more changes to the site in this matter.
As for the Adblock Detector, I think I'm going to leave it off for a while and check some analytics to see how things go without it. The pink banners I had no issue with, but that one that pops up and covers the page (dims it down with the read header) even I hated. I wanted it to stand out (hence the bright pink color lol) but I never wanted it to cover the screen. Now that I think about it, I have another one that I need to disable, but I will wait until I get some results from the current test.
Thanks again!
