    Hi Guys,

    Since yesterday, i am not being able to see any of the Google Ads on any of teh sites on my computer? Has anyone experienced this as well?

    Its just not the ads on my own blogs and sites, but all the sites i have visited.

    I generally never click any of the ads from my computer or IP, so was wondering, why is it so?

    Regards

    Ashiana

    Maybe bots are checking your site.
    That is normal .

    Check if you have Adblock installed.
    Some Spyware Remover or Firewall tends to block ads.

    I faced this problem before, and it was solved by referring to below solution. Hope this help.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Does this appear when you click on Google ads?

    Unable to connect
    Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at pagead2.googlesyndication.com.

    Most often the reason would be you have a firewall or anti-virus program like Norton Antivirus that blocks out spyware and malware. Here are some solutions:

    Go to Start > Run. Type cmd and a command prompt window will show. Type

    nslookup pagead2.googlesyndication.com

    This should show up:

    Non-authoritative answer:
    Name: pagead.l.google.com
    Addresses: 72.14.235.165, 72.14.235.166, 72.14.235.164
    Aliases: pagead2.googlesyndication.com

    If it doesn’t show, it means your ISP has blocked that website. In order to bypass that you have to use a proxy.

    If there is an answer it means your computer has blocked access. Go to: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc and open the HOSTS file with notepad. Delete these strings

    127.0.0.1 adwords.google.com
    127.0.0.1 pagead.googlesyndication.com
    127.0.0.1 pagead2.googlesyndication.com
    127.0.0.1 adservices.google.com
    127.0.0.1 www.googleadservices.com

    Now you should be able to access pagead2.googlesyndication.com.

    Sometimes plugins or firewalls block the ads.
    Did you install something?

    Yes exactly. Hats off to you. I have been trying to figure out where is the adblocks there, as mentioned by Abhik.

    Thank you everybody, but the problem still stays.

    Never mind guys, here is the solution, i googled that out. Here it is for people, who face similar problems.

    Go to Control Panel of Kaspersky.

    Then Settings: Protection:Firewall:publicity Banners blocking(see at the bottom)

    Click its settings, uncheck: *.googlesyndication.com/*show_ads.js * imageads*.googleadservices.com. Restat your browser, and there you go...Cheers!
