normally the firefox browser stops all pop-ups because of the add blocker I have but lately videos and even a new window will pop-up and It will usually play or advertise so I installed another add blocker and they still get thru so the only way they can get thru is ether they are well programed adds or firefox can't block them a/o supports these pop-ups themselves some info would be nice

Hi Hadosan

Please find an article on pop-blocker in the link below.

There is a section on pop-up not being block, try it and hope it solve your problem.

Cheers Pamela
