Pop-up blocking is turned on but Firefox doesn't provide an information bar about pop-up blockong action, so how to enable this information bar?
I installed new Firefox few weeks ago. So, in this new version, Pop-up blocking is turned on. I conclude that due to fact that some pages (pop-ups) which I used to use regularly can not be browsed. However, in previous version of Firefox I was informed about pop-up and offered with possibility to make exceptions of some pop-ups which I allowed. Now, in this version I don't have information bar and I don't know how to turn on that bar.

I didn't solve my problem. I couldn't activate information bar. The bar is dismissed (somehow) and I don't know how to enable that bar again. I need information when some pop-up is blocked and I still don't have it.
Please do the following.
- In the location bar at the top, type about:config and hit Enter.
- In the filter at the top, copy/paste the following: privacy.popups.showBrowserMessage This may or may not display a blank page, but if it does, then that's OK too.
- If you see the above entry appear and it shows "False" under "Value" on the right. double click it to change it to "True" and go to step 7.
- If all you see is a blank page, right click anywhere in the blank area and choose "New", then "Boolean".
- In the dialog box which appears called "Enter Preference Name", copy/paste: privacy.popups.showBrowserMessage and click OK.
- In the next dialog box which appears, choose "True".
- Close the tab and then go to http://www.popuptest.com/ and test it.
I don't understand any of the directions above! Is there a newer resolution to this problem so many people are having a problem with?
