No ads until I refresh

[Mikey85]

Hi,

I got a strange problem on my website.
Sometimes when I visit a page on my site, he shows no google ads, but when I hit refresh, he shows does show them.

How is that possible?

same thing was happening to me yesterday?

This happens to some of our sites every now and again - sorts itself out after a day or so.

I notice this a lot as well.

I have really been ignoring it though.

I am not sure if there is anything one can do!?

Do you have any special anti virus software or firewall installed? With my McAfee firewall, it does this sometimes. At least I think that is the reason because when I turn off the firewall, I have no problems seeing my ads.

I've had the same problem for a few days now. Ads only show up 50% of the time when I refresh, but the big problem is that they almost never show up on the first page-landing (which means users never see any ads at all). I thought this might be a design error, but I use a few different designs on different sites and they all do the same thing (and they didn't last week or before that).

Does anyone have any idea if this a Google bug, or a browser issue, or server isssue, etc?

Does anyone know if Google is aware of this and if there is anything they can do about it?
