Hi !
Would you please take a look at these articles :
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/pop-blocker-settings-exceptions-troubleshooting
But most of all :

Note : make sure that you run all, or at least most of the malware scanners.
Just to be on the safe side, you may also want to do this :
Go to the 3-bar menu => Addons => and look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions.
When you find any : remove them.
Also look in : Advanced => Network tab => Under : 'Offline Web Content and User Data' When you see something suspicious : remove it.
Do the same in Windows' Control Panel => Programs.
However : most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere, hence the malware scans.
To prevent this from happening again you might consider installing this
add-on :
