Hi.
When you submit a fingerprint it sets a cookie in your browser that prevents double submission of identical fingeprints.
This could cause you to appear unique upon resubmission.
The ad-block thing is probably caused by one of Tor's advanced security features. It happens when the security slider is on high, but not low.
Thanks!
