I just get a page showing Internet Brands Travel Logo.
I didn't use to have problems. Any suggestions?

If I click on a news story from the home page or if I go to News on the menu bar and then clock on a story, I get a page that looks like what I've pasted in below. It used to have an Internet Brands logo at the top of the page but no longer does. I probably first experienced it a few days before July 25. I've never posted a screen shot, so let's hope this works. My first attempt failed, so I'll have to go figure out how to do so.

He's using Chrome, as am I. I don't have the problem. He does. It's not necessarily a browser issue, but trying to check to see if it works w/ a different browser as a comparison would be helpful to help you determine what the problem is/how to fix it if there is one.
Cheers.

If it were happening to me, I'd try to uninstall and reinstall Chrome. Particularly if there have been several layered updates to the existing version.

While they might block ads - which IMO deprive IB - FT of revenue, which I suspect could ultimately have IB looking at its revenue streams and at instituting membership fees if this became very common - they could otherwise interfere with site functionality by inserting yet another layer of software (not necessarily designed with vB and browser compatibility into the systems.

Thanks, I have ABP and thought I had specifically disabled it for this site a long time ago. but it looks like I had disabled Ghostery instead. Now I have disabled ABP and I can look at news stories. Problem solved.
