It would help us help you if you show us the issue. Do you have the same issue when Firefox is in Safe Mode? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/diagnose-firefox-issues-using-troubleshoot-mode#w_how-to-start-firefox-in-4troubleshoot-modesf5safe-modesf

I'm not quite sure how to show you the issue. I'll try to describe it in more detail..... In the lower right corner of my screen there is a "text balloon" that indicates the number of new notifications when I hoover my cursor over it. I normally get random notifications that pop up. Recently, after I visited the site, fuggt.com, I am getting a nonstop series of notifications from them as indicated at the bottom of the "notification box". Is there some way that I can block this website from sending me these notifications?

I tried to upload a .docx file with a screen shot but it but I received an error message so that didn't work.
