Within the last weekj, these obnoxious embedded text ads started popping up most webpages. Anyone have any ideas to what is wrong adblock?

hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware that is active on your pc.
please go to the firefox menu > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc).
also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

Thanks to Phillip, I discovered a program installed two days ago called Sendori that I did not download. I was able to remove it and everything seems to be back to normal.
thx John
