Hello sirinath,

Maybe you'd like to check the values of some preferences on the "about:config" page :
Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)
Type in the search bar : popups
You'll see a number of preferences appear.
If you have to change anything, then close and restart Firefox, in order for the change to take effect.
'Hope this helps ......
