Hi,

You can try to set plugins.click_to_play to true in about:config.

about:config Entries

You can look at Adblock Plus to hide Flash pop-ups.

• Adblock Plus: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/

You need to subscribe to a Filter list (e.g. the EasyList).

i know adblock but it's not the solution. i don't want to block the ads, i just want to block popups. that ad is openning a popup like every 5 minutes, without doing anything !

chrome block this popup without any problem, firefox should be able too, no ?

The Chrome and Internet Explorer Flash implementations is different from the Firefox implementation. Also, ideally there would be user controllable settings/preferences to control Flash behavior in the Windows Control Panel > Flash Player. As this is not so, users would have to try add-ons or extra Firefox manipulations.

but there is an option privacy.popups.disable_from_plugins in firefox to especially block popup from plugins, so i think it can be blocked by firefox if we find out how this ad is bypassing the anti popup from firefox

Yes, that is true. It could be that this is programmed as a new tab?? Please note that there would surely be a better explanation :)

according to this site : http://www.showmycode.com/

the source code is :

//---------------------------------------------------------------------- //Symbol 41 MovieClip Frame 25 //----------------------------------------------------------------------

   time_txt.text = int(time_txt.text) + 1;
   gotoAndPlay (2);
   if (int(time_txt.text) == 3) {
       getURL (_root.clickTag, "_blank");
   }

 //---------------------------------------------------------------------- //Instance of Symbol 27 MovieClip "controller" in Frame 1 //---------------------------------------------------------------------- onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

   this._x = _root._xmouse;

}  //---------------------------------------------------------------------- //Symbol 38 Button //---------------------------------------------------------------------- on (release) {

   getURL (clickTag, "_blank");

}  //---------------------------------------------------------------------- //Frame 1 //----------------------------------------------------------------------

   startDrag ("follow", true);
   Mouse.hide();

Sorry, that is so foreign to me :) Maybe a Flash programmer would be able to explain?? You can also try to post in a Flash programming site.

do mozilla developpers read this section and can provide a response ?

A better, faster way to get developer attention would be to file a report @ Bugzilla@Mozilla. You can then post a link to that here.

i did it, thanks : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=776355

Thank you :)
