SP2 or spybotS&D?

Lately, since adding SP2, when I go to some webpages, the page itself will not load, but I get the ad headers, along with a notice form Spybot that the Spybot Resident has prevented the loading of  Ad. mkt or double click, for example. I have to refresh the page two or three times before I can read the "body" of the page I want to load. Is this the SP2 or Spybot?  And if not what can I do to fix this annoying quirk?   The SP2 install  may be a coincidence, since I cannot really swear that the problem started after the install of SP2.    Thanks to all out there.

    I would think that this is SS&D doing it's job of blocking undesirable content.  Some web pages may not load if such content is blocked and in this case, that's a site I can do without.  You can disable the SS&D popups by selecting "Block Silently" in the programs options on the "Immunization" page.

    When SP2 blocks content, it also notifies you of doing so and, provides the reason.

    could be sp2's popup blocker (or active x blocker) -- both will show up in that new info bar at the top of the IE window

    could also be spybot really disliking a particular page
