Solve : Comment sections have disappeared across loads of websites..?

Answer»

Hi. For some reason about 2 weeks ago comment section on various website wont appear for me. Even when i use a different browser. I always use chrome but the same thing happens on IE. I thought perhaps the introduction of the new cookie laws in the uk might have somethign to do with it but i dont know to be honest. I googled it but no-one else seems to have the problem. Any IDEAS??

Do you have any ad blocking software installed? Ad block Plus will sometimes block the comment sections on websites. Ghostery will almost always block them as well as other things like Facebook and Twitter buttons.No ad-blocking software that im aware of. I have bullguard but i have had that for 3 years and havent changed the settings once. Good evening Richie and welcome to CH

You may have 3 possible issues.

The java temp / jar file may be corrupt and this can be fixed very easy. Every OS is a little different but Locate the Java Icon in the control panel when that is open look towards the bottom for "temp internet files" click on the "setting button" then in the next box take the check mark out of the top left "keep temporary files on my computer" then click "delete files" then after it is done put the check mark back in and close that box. ALSO while you are in the java applet click on the "update tab" and tell it to update.

Next to try go to adobe.com and update your "flash player" and the "shockwave player" but the pain to this is you have to update all browsers (IE and FF etc) by going to adobe.com and doing the "flash player" and the "shockwave player" on each different browser plus when you are the adobe site to do the updates just take the check mark out for McAfee or what ever they are pushing at this time .

If this does not work try running any of your browsers in safe mode (not windows safe mode the browsers safe mode). Doing this will disable all add-on / extensions to SEE if your issue is GONE. More than likely it is one of the above items.

Then when you are done the 3 above items restart your browsers and you should be good, Please let us know how you make out. Mike
