Adblock is not blocking all ads even tho I've set my preferences

I installed AdBlock and set my preferences to stop all ads - even the 'acceptable ads' but I continue to have the invasion. If I can't stop this. Firefox will cease to be my preferred browser. I don't want to see ANY ads while I'm on the Internet. It's bad enough that they appear on videos and the side bars. But popping onto the screen where you are trying to work is just plain rude.

Followed the steps. Hopefully the intrusion will stop. Thanks for the help!

  • Why does Firefox continue to block all popups even tho I disabled popups?

    Even though I have disabled FireFox pop-up blocker in Tools, Options, content FireFox blocks EVERY pop-up or site redirect.
    The only other thing is that quit often I get an error message when I try to open FireFox. It works properly the second or third time.
    Also blocks site when a site redirects to another site.

    Do you have a firewall or other security software that can block pop-ups?
    See: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences Tools > Options] > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"

  • Ad-blocker is not blocking Firefox ads. Is there a way to block these ads from the Firefox home page?

    Whenever I open a new Firefox window there is a new Firefox ad. AdBlocker Plus does not seem to block Firefox ads. All ads are annoying. Period. Even yours. Is it possible to block these ads? Please advise. Thanks!

    What is it that you are seeing. I think firefox only displays web pages, rather than popup adverts etc.
    If you are talking about the new page seen when you update from an earlier version, that should only display the once. If yours displays continuously and repeatedly on startups then maybe something is blocking the required change.

  • Firefox is not creating crash reports even tho Submit Report is checked

    I upgraded to Firefox 4 sometime late March, and it crashes regularly. Firefox last crashed regularly when the plugin container used by Digital Chocolate in Facebook crashed. I upgraded all the plugins, then upgraded Firefox. Now Firefox 4 crashes regularly while running SD in FB, signified by blurred vid & no mouse/keyboard, requiring hard reboot. And Firefox hasn't generated a crash report since Feb 4, 2011 even tho Submit Crash Report is checked

    Im not sure about this. But I saw the crash report and it looked like JavaScript failure. You might want to try to update your Java at http://www.java.com

  • Safari allows 3rd party cookies and all cookies even when prefernces are set to "never allow" with Mac os 10.6.8

    safari ALWAYS allows 3rd party cookies and all cookies even when set to "block cookies: always" and "from 3rd party and advertisers."  I have removed the website data, emptied the cache, reset safari, erased the history and it STILL dumps cookies.  (For example, if I go to the usgov weather website only I end up with 11 cookies, the top one being "addthis.com" listed as cashed in local storage.  But didn't I just empty the cache... multiple times??? Is my Safari application "broken" or "corrupt."  Can the application be renewed so that it actually does what it is commanded to do?

    Not using any extensions, Andy.
    Allowed a guest account and tested that.  Lots of cache/cookies showed up for my "guest" that on face value, appeared 3rd party:  the familiar "addthis.com" cache and others including a facebook cache and I did not, nor have ever, participated in facebook. But it could be that the "trusted" site my virtual guest visited had a relationship with facebook such that my COMPUTER "friended" facebook even though my guest and I most certainly would have declined the invitation :-)  But what I really don't get is why washington post cookies keep showing up every single time.  Isn't that the absolute definition of 3rd party cookies?!
    forgive my rant.
    On the other hand, when I logged out as guest, all data was automatically deleted, and when I relogged in as guest, it appeared that all the data, including cached data, had indeed been deleted.  But when I relogged in as myself, the same old garbage reappeared in the cache and cookie bin. The fact is, there appears to be no such thing as truly and completely emptying ones cache, resetting ones browser, or deleting ones cookies. They are here to stay.
    (And, oh yes, I have tried logging out, turning off and on the computer right after performing emptying tasks, etc.)

  • My phone will not connect to WIFI all the time, but if I cut it off and go thru Verizon network the it's fine. Everyone else in my house does not have this problem even tho they have same phone as me. I have restarted, reset, rebooted and done everything

    My 4S will get on internet but will not connect to any site including the App store or I tunes. If I cut Wifi off and go thru Verizon network then it is just fine. It is very slow loading tho. Everyone else in my house connects just fine.

    Jglee,
    I can understand how connecting to Wi-Fi is very important to maintain better control of your GB. I appreciate all the troubleshooting you have already tried to get this issue corrected.  Does your 4s have the most current software?  You can check this in setttings: Settings>General>Software Update.  Keep us posted.  We are here to help.

  • How can I get rid of adverts which are blocking all apps, even apple ones?

    My grandmother is a fan of Words With Friends but recently an extremely intrusive BMW advert has appeared which cannot be closed and which takes up most of the screen. It has also started appearing in other apps when it shouldn't, including apple's own App Store. We have tried clearing the multitasking tray and have re-started it multiple times to no avail. We even deleted the offending app and yet the advert still remains on the App store.
    Since I can only communicate via phone, I can't determine which iOS version she is using as she cannot understand my instructions on how to find it. However, I am confident it is NOT iOS 7.
    Is there any way to solve this problem? Ideally, it needs to be easy enough to explain to someone who is not particularly "technologically gifted".

    Contact Zynga games at http://investor.zynga.com/contactus.cfm. No pop up add should not have an exit option, but this one is the exception. Alternatively, pay for the app (it's not expensive). The only other way is to reset your device, which is frustrating but the only way I have found to terminate the BMW ad. sorry I can't be more help.

  • I want my tabs to not open automatically and even though i have set to do that it still opens it automatically, i've tried all solutions that were provided nothing helps.

    i have the "when i open a new link in a tab, switch to it immediately" option unchecked. it still opens them when i open a new link. i found someone who was having the same problem but the solution to his problem did not help me. i have restored my prefrences, disabled all addons and plugins. nothing worked

    Hello Trey.
    I believe your issue comes from a slight misunderstanding... It's not your fault, of course, Firefox should be clearer in this aspect, but I should be able to clear the misunderstanding and make sure you know what's going on.
    The "when i open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" option only applies to tabs open deliberately in a new a tab. For example, when you middle-click (click your mouse's scroll wheel) a link (or use the appropriate contextual menu entry). It doesn't apply to links that are set by the site to open in a new tab. This is normal standard behavior, and isn't likely to change any time soon, but there are multiple things you can do so it doesn't bother you.
    For example, you can middle-click (or use the appropriate contextual menu entry) the links you want to open on a new tab, instead of right-clicking them and have them open in a new tab only if the site has instructed your browser to do so. You can also go into ''Tools > Options > Tabs > Open links that open in a new window in:'' and select "Current tab", so the links that are instructed by the website to open in a new window/tab, are open in the same tab, and so you have complete control of where each link opens. This setting, however, is known to cause some trouble in some websites that are pop-up-heavy, so use this with caution.
    I hope this helps.

  • Invoice not blocked from posting even if final inv indicator is checked in

    Hi,
    We have set "No Futher Invoice" Indicator on SRM PO so that no Invoice is posted in ECC, but still able to post an invoice. We didn't find any fields on SRM PO to block the PO Line Items, and we don't want to delete the PO line item because of reporting issues.
    Have any of you faced the same Issue? How can we resolve this issue on blocking PO Line Item or Block complete PO so that NO INVOICE can be posted.
    Your help is really appreciated.
    Thanks
    Vijay

    How about creating an invoice block in SRM config - SPRO > Supplier Relationship Management > SRM Server > Cross-Application Basic Settings > Set Tolerance Checks. Need to assign the tolerance group against users/org units in the SRM org structure (attribute = TOG - tolerance group) for the tolerance checks to take effect.

  • "CLEAR RECENT HISTORY" does NOT delete all history (even if i check all and set time range to EVERYTHING)

  • Outlook 2013 not showing attachment icon even tho there is one.

    This quite a weird bug. Outlook 2013 is not showing any icons regarding attachments however there is an attachment!
    Why is this happening? Any idea?
    Best regards,
    Aleksei.

    Hi Aleksei,
    This might has something to do with your current view setting to your folders. Please check if
    Attachment has been added into "Show these columns in this folder" list in
    Show Columns dialog:
    Select the mail folder
    Go to View tab on the ribbon
    Go to View Settings>Columns...
    Select Attachment from Available columns: list, then click
    Add-> button.
    Hope this helps.

    It's recommended to download and install
    Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

    Unfortunately, Attachment option is already selected and if I scroll down I see the icon on different emails.

  • Why does Firefox not block all popups? Example Netflicks

    I was on HGTV site and when I closed Firefox, on my desktop was a Netflicks ad.

    See this: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Popups_not_blocked
    IIRC, Netflix uses this service - http://www.optmd.com/ <br />
    You can use the '''CLICK TO OPT OUT »''' link on the right-side of that page to "opt out" of receiving those popunder advertisements.
