Default Problem with Classified Ads on this forum

When searching the Classified ads and finding something in which I am interested, if I click on the ad the info flashes momentarily on the screen and then all I get is a white screen. This happens with every ad I try to view, so I can't see any of the ads. I have confirmed that my pop-up blocker is off. I can't figure out what else I can do to be able to see the ads. Does anyone have any suggestions?

My ad blocker has always been the reason why I see that

I use Ad blocker, and had to turn it off for classifieds. I now allow that site, and have had no further problem.

Is it possible that you have more than one ad blocker app installed? If so, turning one of them off will not solve the problem.

In the IT world, users may call it a problem, developers call it a "feature"

How do I find an ad blocker if I have one? I have not installed one that I know of.

Click on "settings" and then "apps" for a complete list of all apps. Some phones and tablets come with a pre-installed ad blocker app. My Samsung devices have a Samsung ad blocker app.
