Windows 10 did a lengthy update this morning (5/11/18). After update, Firefox started generating err msg with yellow back color saying Ad Blocker, that worked for a year, had a script that was taking too long and then Firefox freezes. Ad Blocker had been running on Firefox for more than a year without problems. Without Ad Blocker, my screen is 3/4 covered with ads and Firefox is unusable. I need to have a fix for this or go to another browser. Please advise.

Make sure the Ad Blocker program is up to date. You should also contact Ad Blocker support.

How do I contact Microsoft by email. Seems there are other issues with this update to my computer.
