My home page has a pop-up. Firefox wants to know if it should allow. It does not ask for a "not allow". So next time I log on it goes through the same routine. I can't find nothing for this in the tools section other than for exceptions to allow. HELP please

hello Spur52, while you're on the page in question, right-click somewhere on a blank spot and go to view page info > permissions to set the permissions for popups and other settings.

What are the pop-up settings?

It only makes sense to set to block exception a pop-up if you allow pop-ups by default

You can inspect and manage the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:

  • Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
  • Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
  • Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab

You can inspect and manage the permissions for all domains on the about:permissions page.
