How to block dialog boxes from advertisers (addon or smth).
Before i start MSupport account registration process is bad af, took me 15 minutes to just create 1 post.
Second i've noticed serious issue with dialog boxes on some scamming sites. Sometimes i got redirected from the site i browse to site with the advertise, and my previously browsed site is opened in new window. Now the site i am redirected to has dialog box (u won the internet bla bla bla) and you can only click ok. Now when i don't want to click ok i can't do anything else except closing this site. My question is how to block dialog boxes or redirection ? Any addon for that? I want to add that this redirection is quite worrying because when i click backward very fast i can see that i was redirected through dozens of shady sites. Redirection is also somehow looped, no matter how much i click backward i end up in same sites. Also redirection bypass adblock of any kind.
Below is an example of such case.

You may have ad/mal-ware. Further information can be found in this article; https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-caused-malware?cache=no
Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If one program misses something, another may pick it up.
Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for a good ad / pop-up blocker.
I want smth like that, is there any firefox addon with similar function?

First, I should mention that when you right-click the Back button, you usually get a list that lets you skip over many intermediate sites by clicking an earlier site in history. That might help in some cases.
Second, if you don't already, you may consider running an ad blocking extension such as uBlock Origin. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/
Third, Firefox's built-in redirect block is not a very effective security measure because it was designed a long time ago for particular situations to aid users of screen reading software. It also may cause frustration (constant Allow prompts, blank pages) in normal browsing. So I don't recommend it but if you want to try it any way:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste access and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the accessibility.blockautorefresh preference to your preference:
- true = sometimes blocked
- false = not blocked
