I have web-based software that opens a new window by Pop Up to respond to an action of mine. In other browsers, this occurs without a hitch. In Firefox, the pop-up tries to open, and after a fraction of a second, it closes. Yes, I have gone into Settings and turned off Pop Up Blocking. And, yes, I have upgraded to the latest version of Firefox. But the problem persists. I appreciate any help or suggestions.
