How to Block MFA without clicking on Ads

[PowerUp]

Hi, how do you identify the URL in the wide banner? I only see the "title" and "description" of the ad, but i don't see any URLs, so...how?

PowerUp, download and use the Adsense Preview Tool.

But the preview tool is only available for IE? What about Firefox? It's ironic that GA doesn't have a preview tool to support their own browser..

I use Mozilla. Hover over the ad and it'll reveal the URL in the status bar.

Hovering over the link won't always show you the true URL, it only shows the "display" URL which may or may not be the same. If you can't use the preview tool, find a way to view the source. The true URLs can be found shortly after "adurl" in the source.

In IE, if you right click the ad, copy and paste the url into a new browser window. The strip away all the crap before addurl= and after the url itself. That way you can see the landing page if the preview tool hasn't displayed the ad.

Firefox does have an Adsense preview plugin.

Go to Tools->extentions->get more extentions

Search for "adsense".

You'll receive two matches, one for AdSense preview and one for AdSense Notifier.

Of course, it'd be nice if Google did have an "official" Preview tool.
