So I've been with adsense for about nearly a year now, well actually come July it'll have been a year. Anyhow, recently on my website <snip> I've been getting the 403 error where my adsense ads should be.

This started on Wednesday night into Thursday morning around 3am. It's been that way ever since. Now on Thursday I got about 2 impressions or something and today I got about 3. My usual for a day on my main page alone is 200+, with about 150+ on each page where my news stories are. So it obviously blinked in for a second today. Then went out again.

Now I haven't been banned because I can still login, grab code, etc. I haven't been suspended, and I haven't gotten an email from google stating anything like "we regret to inform you yada yada". I've written emails to google adsense support but the two I got back were just the usual song and dance about check your javascript, etc. They obviously don't understand that it's not that I cannot see the ads, it's that they aren't showing AT ALL! ANYWHERE!

So what should I do at this point? I've removed the ads from my main page and have my sideshow collectibles ads up for the time being. I know it isn't my host because if they were blocking google ads out of some new policy then an email would've been sent to me about it which it has not been. Nor is there anything posted about that on their main page. So #*$!? :/

If this 403 just started happening today, it's your personal firewall setting blocking active-x

Something changed today with adsense - Google appears to be embeded objects inside of them.

Because I filter out active-x it freaked me out today when ads were not showing on any of my sites.

Allowed activex and bingo, it's working.

I don't like that however, I wonder why Google changed the code.

My active x are allowed anyways. Unsigned ones are blocked. Signed ones are allowed.

newyork, has the problem been fixed on your site? It has been on another site that was having the same problem that you were although the AdSense ad blocks on that site have been moved to a different location on the page.

Yes sir it's been fixed, all the ads are running smoothly and I've made 23 bucks so far today.

I've the same problem with my web and i haven't recieved any reply from google.

My problem is related to my domain, if i put my adsense in other domain it works perfectly, but if i put in my main domain my users can see the forbidden page.

I hope i will have to wait google to solve it, because i think i can't do anything...
