Had a popup blocker as an addon and deleted it when it was blocking more than expected. I deleted the program but the blocker remains

Do you recall exactly what you had installed? Like the "name" of what you had?

Was it a Firefox addon or was it a program?

It was a FF add on, something with an "A". I deleted it some 6 months ago.

You can try to clear the "Site Preferences" via Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox

You can also try "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the Safe mode start window.
