Zephyr Skizm Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Not sure if I picked the right forum to post this in, but here goes. For the past few weeks, everytime I go to any page in Marketplace, the page will load for one second then go completely white. People show me links on MP and I have to refresh the page several times and look quickly LOL. I can't even shop. The last time I bought something, luckily, I had already saved the page to bookmarks, so I had to refresh over and over and click "buy" quickly. I don't know if it's something with my windows or with SL, but I'd greatly appreciate it if someone knew the answer. :robotfrustrated: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freya Mokusei Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 What's your Internet browser, including version? (Also, does using the SL Viewer's integrated browser still do this?) Do you use extensions such as AdBlock, or other content filters? Do you have content filtering enabled on your AntiVirus/Firewall or other security software?

Phil Deakins Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Just a thought... Are you certain that the whole page goes white. It's possible that the main page content is pushed below the bottom of the screen by something that shouldn't be there. See if you can scroll down below the screen after it's gone white. If that's what's happening you need to do something about it. LL does place a banner ad across the top of pages but it's not big enough to push the main page below the screen. The ad-blocker that I tried left white space where ads were, which is a poor implementation of ad-blocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Skizm Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 I use Firefox 20, and I have the same adblocks I've always had that never blocked MP before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Skizm Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 the whole page is white or I would specify that part of the page is white. My adblocker has never blocked a page showing one item, or all items, or even the buy pages.. I bought one item since it's been doing this, and I had to repeatedly refresh while clicking the buy, and confirm buy buttons. Those aren't ads. It doesn't matter what page on MP, they will show the page for a split second then go allllll white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disable all content filtering and retry. Leave your firewall up, but disable any web-based ad/spam filtering system that you're running. First determine which system is blocking the marketplace.secondlife.com sub-domain, and then determine why. Marketplace.secondlife.com is compatible with Firefox 20. The issue will lie with your personal browsing experience (incl. filtering/security), extensions and configuration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthetic Seerose Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I have adblocker and it causes my marketplace page to turn white. I think they declared war on adblocker. Some other websites do that as well. So I'm going to look for a patch to block their anti-adblocker script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthetic Seerose Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 After a lot of searching I have discovered it was not adblocker that made the page turn white, but some adware that had infiltrated my browser. I got rid of it and am now back to the pleasant experience of an ad-free marketplace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rival Destiny Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I had this problem also for the past few days & could not figure it out. It ended up being Adblock Plus - disable for sl seems to work but if anyone has any other suggestions, would be awesome. Meanwhile, I'll leave this here in case someone else has issue with Adblock Plus. Rival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfofthenyght Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 And thank you VERY much for leaving that here! Same browser, same addon (Ad Block Plus). Disabled it for community.secondlife.com and the market place, and it works perfectly again. Thank you SO much! This was incredibly frustrating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
