    I'm not sure if this was discussed on other threads, but based on my search it didn't.

    I can see the google ads, so is my friend, so is etc..

    I tryed today from another computer, other ISP, it doesn't display, gives no error (like 404) it just doesn't display.. I asked a friend from UK he can't see any Google Ads, I asked 1s after another guy, he can!

    How do you explain this, I'm pretty sure it's not geo targeting..

    Might be a Firefox extension that specifically blocks adsence adds. Ive used it before. Most people do not have it installed though.

    If you are using blogger then I will just point out that sometimes their Adsense widget is anoying. It takes quite a while for it to show but you see the space where it would be if it did show.

    I too am having trouble with ads showing up. Under IE ads show just fine, under firefox (no extensions) the ads do not show up. However if I create a blank html file with only google ads they do show up. I can replace them with yahoo ads and they work just fine. Any thoughts?

    main issue with those kinds of problems is Adblockers block the ads

    ads are javascript
    javascript can be disabled in any browser
    some people do so for fear or without knowing
    hence if some PC/browser show NO ads - FIRST verify that browsers javascript settings!!

    for mozilla firefox

    check:
    >edit > preferences > content > ENABLE JavaScript !!!

    ALL known browsers have such settings somewhere in the preference section to disable / enable javascript
    it might be possible that after a new isntall OR a major UPDATE such settings may be reset ... and tjs disabled = hence google ads NOshow .)
    whenever there is something wrong/NOT working with such a major piece of SW like firefox - always FIRST assume that you have done something wrong in your configuration or handling of THAT SW.
