This last week when I am in email, read one and then go to read another I get the pop up box unresponsive script, also when using shopping sites, at the very top it says mozilla is not responding and then the pop up box unresponsive script comes up.

Please can someone help. I have the add on Yahoo mail Hide Ad Panel as I keep getting sponsored link ads at the top of my first email before I open it. I have Mcafee web advisor, both of these are under the extensions.

There are some plug ins including shockwaves. I am not tech savvy as you will probably see from this post.

many thanks in anticipation

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for a good ad/pop-up blocker.


Scripts are programs that websites and add-ons use to work. We need to know the full message to help with this.

Hello thank you, have enabled the Ad block plus and as yet no pop up unresponsive script has appeared, will keep you updated and if it appears again will send you a screenshot. Could the adblock plus have sorted it and if so how?

many thanks
