as soon as i click on something i get 1 to 3 popups with a faded screen sending me redirect to someplace else that im not even interesting in doing and has nothing to do with what im going to. i get so mad about this i cant even type in a number or something and i look up and its going to redirect me someplace else and have to x out of 1 to 3 before i get back to the page im looking for. i dont need popups.

One common cause of pop-ups or ads injected into sites is an unwanted extension. Try this:

Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:

  • Ctrl+Shift+a
  • orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons

In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, click Disable. Or try Remove.

Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.

Does that cut down the popups?

Note: if no Remove button is available, this usually indicates externally installed software. This may help in that case:

(1) Check the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a program. Clicking the "Installed on" column heading helps uncover bundled programs that can sneak unwanted add-ons onto your computer.

(2) Supplement your regular security software with additional anti-malware scans. This article lists tools other Firefox users have found helpful: Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware.

You can do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
All these programs have free versions.

Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.
