Why do I keep getting pop-ups wanting me to load Rocket Speed Booster? I try to cancel the pop-ups but they keep repopulating the screen. I had to close Firefox to get rid of them - but then they came back after re-opening Firefox. Thanks for your help. Lynn

There are several possibilities.

1) It could be the work of one of your add-ons.

Type about:addons<enter> in the address box to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)

In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Disable a few add-ons, then Restart Firefox.

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All Of them.

If the problem continues, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until the problem is gone. After, you know what group is causing the issue. Re-enable the last group ONE AT A TIME (restarting FF) until the problem returns.

Once you think you found the problem, disable that and re-enable all the others, then restart again. Let us know who the suspect is, detective.

2) Are you using a shortcut to open Firefox? Right-click on it and select Properties.

At the top, select Shortcut. Now look for Target. Make sure there are no links that you don't want.
