Hi, sorry you are having problems.

Mozilla labs is a set of projects, none of which should be seen or affect you unless you go looking for and install them.
(Possible exception the Test pilot add-on, IF you opted for a previous Firefox Beta, then Test Pilot was offered. For background info see mozillalabs.com/projects/ -> Test Pilot

I suggest you try refreshing Firefox. That retains passwords, bookmarks, open tabs and plugins, but will reset some things and remove any add-ons. I suggest you Bookmark the home sites of any add-ons you may wish to re-install later.

You also need to update Firefox, you are on Fx34 the current Release is Fx35.0.1

Please post back to say how you get on and confirm what you have tried. If you still have a problem with some 

unresponsive plugin pop up constantly popping up

please provide more detail about that and maybe a screenshot would help
