Appleinsider not working in Safari
I have a problem where the main Appleinsider web site does not load at all in Safari, but loads instantly in Firefox. I have had this problem intermittently for months, but it seems to be a permanent problem now.
All other sites I use load quickly/perfectly, but the Appleinsider web site just stalls forever. The appleinsder forums do load OK.

This morning I couldn't get the site to load, it just stalled every time. I switched off Javascript using the Safari Develop menu and then the site loaded perfectly (without adverts). I then switched Javascript back on and again it loaded perfectly (with adverts this time).
I am beginning to think it is an advert causing the problem. I do not use any Safari extensions. I do not see with problem with any other site I use.
If someone did something to fix it - THANKS!
Running latest Safari & OS. Everything Standard.
It still has some stalling (Beachball).
I'm in the US. The test page loads instantly but no ad is shown.
My Safari extensions (as shown in its Preferences): 1Password (checkmarked), Adblock Engine (not checkmarked), Adblock icon (not checkmarked), StopTheMadness (not checkmarked).
DM me if you would like me to try any specific tests.
Not sure what could be causing this. It's possible that some ad could be causing a mess, but usually when that happens we hear about it from a bunch of people.
Are you located inside the US geographically? Can you give some more details on what version of macOS, Safari, and what computer you are using?
