How can I turn off Firefox automatically blocking a page from opening in another window when I click on almost anything??? This is beyond annoying.

Even when Firefox asked me to verify my email address so that my question about suspending the page blocking feature could be answered, it STILL 'PREVENTED THIS PAGE FROM AUTOMATICALLY OPENING IN ANOTHER WINDOW'!!!! That's just crazy. PLEASE tell me how I can disable this feature so that when I click on an email or link, it opens AUTOMATICALLY in another window without my having to click on anything. (Otherwise, I LOVE Firefox ;-)

Hi! Sorry for any inconvenience caused by this issue.

Firefox has the ability to block popup windows, in order to prevent users from being annoyed by popup ads and content of that nature. This feature can be disabled or you can grant websites permission to open popups on Firefox.

These settings can be found under the Content tab of the Firefox options page. Under the Popups section, you can uncheck Block pop-up windows to completely disable popup blocking (not recommended).

Alternatively, you can add websites to the list of exceptions, meaning that Firefox should then allow these websites to open popup windows. To add exceptions, click the Exceptions... button and enter the domain of the website into the Address of website text box. Then click the Allow button to add the website to the list. Once you are finished adding your exceptions, click the Save changes button.

Note: You may need to restart Firefox for changes to take effect.

I hope that this helps you solve your problem.
