The message appears when the speed test is blocked from re= aching a test server.

It has turned out to be almost alw= ays either Adblock, AdblockPlus or NOSCRIPT

The er= ror message is correct, at least, has been so far: it is always an extensio= n
and whatever extension it is, does not report to what it is doi= ng, just rips a hole
in the browser.

Of = course, I'm happy to add an additional error if it turns out to be inco= rrect.
Are you sure Adblock is disabled? and no other extensions = are operating?

by the way I dislike adblock intens= ely, and not for selfish $ reasons, they filter
javascript and ht= ml and CSS using regular expressions (first mistake) and then
rip= out anything matching any combinations of letters that were once or are no= w
used in part of an advertising url, function or style template.= In doing so they

Dear list,

I'm unable to use the speed test with either of my main browsers
(Firefox and Chrome, both under Linux) because of the above error
message. Even if I temporarily completely disable Adblock.

What is the problem here? Because what is incorrect is the error
message, not my use of browser extensions.

Thanks, Jan
