    Firefox and Pop ups


    I keep getting pop ups even when I've selected no pop ups undr Tools on FFox. The pop ups are always behind the browser, never in front.

    Any work arounds to stop pop ups from popping up?

    Do you have the add-on (ad blocker plus) This could help.Once you add it restart Firefox.

    Yeah, most likely these are Flash pop-ups, which aren't related to the normal pop-up windows.

    Your welcome. It doesn't stop all of them but for me it does most of them. If I ever learn how to stop all of them I will get back.
