Since upgrading, I've been getting a ton of pop-ups. If you update, you should ACTUALLY make it better.

Ever since I upgraded to the newest Firefox (Beta or not), the sites I most commonly use are suddenly making pop-ups appear all the time. PLEASE do something to fix this, or I'm done using Firefox. This would be a statement, not a question.

You can enable your Known & Trustworthy Add-ons later. Check and tell if its working.

So I tried that whole long list of things to do to fix the problem and I was still getting all the pop-ups.

Then, mysteriously and magically, 2 days later they stopped, and a little tiny bubble pops up and says "blocked."

So it works, and I thank you so much for your help, but for anyone else that might have this problem, it did seem to take a little while for the effects to be laid in place.

Thanks again!
