Gmail - Fwd to "sponsored ad" link doesn't work

Post by PSholar »

Using NoScript 1.9.5 with Firefox 3.5 under Win XP SP3

1. Click on a "sponsored ad" link shown at top of Inbox view
2. In Firefox status bar, Firefox shows "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page."
3. Click Allow in that status bar.
4. Firefox displays page with heading "Redirect Notice" etc.

This happens with only some "sponsored link" ads in Gmail.

Hard to troubleshoot without a specific example.
Would you like to return with details of the exact link, any Tools|Error Console messages that relate to NS, any NS settings for the page, and any more detail you think could be relevant - - next time this happens?
And if you do want to track the problem down in this forum, you should install the Latest Development Version -

and confirm your results before posting back.
