Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/afkarxyz/SpotiDownloader/issues/94

Spotidownloader (site) has recently been getting infected with malicious "I'm not a robot" popup adverts. These ads block the downloader (exe) from fetching a token correctly which, in turn, blocks it from downloading the required files.
Is this something that can be fixed or worked around?

Error code:

In the latest commit, I've integrated uBlock Origin Lite to eliminate pop-ups. You are welcome to fork and build it. The newest version is still under development prior to release, but it is currently functional.
