Outlook web gets jambed up with 'Buy Office 365' web pages on Firefox, not on Google

I would get an ad (full-page window) for Office 365 following every use of my Outlook web access. That by itself is extremely annoying, but now it comes up as soon as I go to Outlook.live.com, preventing me from accessing my email. Access is fine with Google.

Chosen solution

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for a good ad blocker.

I think I've seen that ad but I don't remember where.

Does it help to use a link direct to the Inbox?

Tried going to the inbox but still only get the ad. Can't get past it, even if I try one of the 'sign in' buttons

I finally did the obvious--removed and replaced Firefox, and added Popup Blocker-strict. Seems to be working--thanks to both of you.
