Hi All:

I constantly get a FULL screen that pops up which looks quite official saying "Critical Firefox Update" and the URL is

https://aolafmemset.org/3644688474828/010051285e22230754ff5eb8381ddeac/6f8e.

At the same time my Norton Anti Virus identifies it as a web attack. This happens repeatedly and I would VERY much want to stop it.

Please help.

Abe

As a stop to AdWare/ Pop-Up scams you can use this add-on provided by Firefox; https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/?src=ss

This will help prevent pop-ups and those pesky annoying messages!
