Why is FireFox just recently failing to block pop-ups?

Just recently pop-ups began to appear. The content setting is to block pop-ups. I used CCleaner to "clean" the hard drive and did a complete scan with Microsoft Security Essentials in an attempt to get rid of the problem. But today I'm still getting a pop-up telling me that my computer won't support the playing of a video, which it actually will support. My operating system is Windows XP with the latest upgrade packages.

When I installed your trouble-shooting window, I got a pop-up telling me that there was spyware on my system. I believe that this too is a fraudulent pop-up.

hello dfwlms, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware already on your pc. please go to firefox > addons > extensions & remove the OfferMosquito 0.9 extension - it's rather unusual and might be malicious.
also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

Your suggested actions have apparently solved the problem.

I went to the extensions to delete Moquito and there were no extensions there.

Spazzyone3,

If you have followed Phillipps suggestions above and are still experiencing problems then you may need to dig deeper using a malware removal program or tool. Because Malware is written for a different purpose than normal viruses, it is often not detected successfully by standard AntiVirus programs. Also, because Malware is generally given permission to be installed, it is considered to be a legitimate program and given a pass.

There are lots of great free malware removal tools out there and I recommend you check reviews on anything you are thinking about using, but my most used tools for this include Malwarebytes, Spybot Search and Destroy, Hijackthis and AdwCleaner (also HitmanPro but they are a 30 day trial). The first one will resolve nearly every issue and is a solid choice.

Since Phillipp already suggested this I recommend trying another name on the list as there doesn't seem to be any "one-size-fits-all" solution to these things and you may have to try several before being rid of the problem for good.

Good luck!
