Can't uninstall on OS X?
Can't uninstall on OS X?
For the last few months, my mac has been blocking ads on chrome and safari, but I never installed the extension. I ran malwarebytes (which said my computer was fine) and looked to see if I downloaded anything related to adblock, but didn't find anything. I also tried disabling all my extensions, switching to incognito, and using different browsers, but ads are still blocked. I'm fine with this, but some websites force me to turn off adblock – which I can't. How can I disable it?

That is a windows application - I am on OS X. I don't think this is caused by a virus, either.

Anyway, you might have something like an ad-blocking HOSTS file on your system, or something in your router that blocks certain domains.
There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.

That fixed it! I edited my HOSTS file years ago to block ads on spotify and forgot about it. Thanks for the help
