Hello, Thank you for your question. I understand that have added apps.facebook.com/vampiresdarkside/ to the pop up exceptions list, but it only add apps.facebook.com.

It does this for me too, however this add on: Adblock plus pop up addon lets you set your own rules for pop ups.

I hope this helps.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.

Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.
