I have tried everything to stop the ads from mozilla my next try will be removing mozilla, I don't want shoes, financing, a mortgage, or any of the crap that mozilla keeps popping up. If I can not stop them I will delete Mozilla and, use Explorer 8 which I really don't like.

Those ads are not coming from Mozilla.

The Adblock Plus add-on can be used to block ads in websites - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/

If you are getting random pop-ups, they may be caused by malware. See the following link, I recommend running some of the scanners shown in the "Spyware on Windows" section - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Popups_not_blocked
