    Hello friends,

    I am noticing that for the past couple of days, the referral ads are not show on my site. Both AdSense referral ads and Firefox referral ads.

    But the normal AdSense Ads are displayed. Even in reports, it shows as "no data" for referrals.

    Is anyone else too seeing such a behaviour?

    I am on windows XP + firefox. Have checked with IE too.

    This can't be browser issue since even the reports say "No data available" for the past couple of days.

    The referral ads were displayed normally till sometime back. I haven't made any changes since then.

    I can see both my sig pages fine. both sites are loading fine at least on my PC.


    BTW, I just realized that I had blocked google.com in competitive ad filter to prevent google adsense related ads. I think the filters are used even for the referrals! But not very sure.

    I have now removed google.com from the block list. Will have to wait for around 3 hrs to see the results.
