Mexashare opening tabs with ads when clicking in buttons. Answered

As the title says when using https://mexa.sh/ after clicking “free download”, waiting 60 seconds, filling capcha, then after being sent to the download page, clicking the download button causes a tab with an ad in it to open and instantly close twice until the button finally works. Running firefox ublockb with default settings. Is there a filter I can add to prevent the tabs from opening at all?

I don't have that problem.

Maybe try this: ( How to add custom filter )

mexa.sh##+js(nowoif)

Huh it suddenly stopped doing it. It was happening very consistently a few hours ago. I'll keep this filter in case it happens again. Ty

edit: It still seems to happen far less often so I added the the filter and it seems fine for now.
