How to disable advertising (ad banner) blocking?

For philosophical reasons, I do not wish to block advertising banners (I believe if everyone did this, we would lose most of the free content on the Internet that we enjoy -- it is very sick to block ads, and then steal resources on the Internet that were funded by those ads). I am disappointed that Astaro does this by default.

Agree or disagree... I just cannot find out where in the Astaro the "Web Ads" are being blocked. I cannot seem to find this as a URL Category or Subcategory. Can someone give me a push in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Jim.  You are saint!  Just getting me to look again at URL Filtering Categories helped me find the problem... by default, it only shows 10 categories at a time... so when I did a search for "Web Ads", I didn't find it.  Now when I display all the categories, and did a search, some how "Web Ads" was checked on the "Suspicious" category!

And you may be right... maybe I accidentally checked it, and so maybe it's not by default.... I can't say for sure.

But now the problem is solved!  Many thanks!!
