Hello sally.fowler800@gmai,

do the following to unblock pop-ups:

  1. Go to Tools > Options .
  2. Click the Content tab.
  3. Un-check Block popup windows .

You should be done!

Kind regards, Tobbi Firefox Support Volunteer

Hello sally.fowler800@gmai,

we have found out that the Firefox version you currently use (3.5.9) is no longer up-to-date.

Please use the update feature to get the latest Firefox update, you can find additional instructions in the Update Firefox to the latest release article!

Kind regards, Tobbi Firefox Support Volunteer

I do not have a Mac, but I am a non-Windows user. So the tools tab has different titles, that's all. I just had to check all of them to figure out where I could make the change.
