How can I unblock a website blocked by Firefox?

When I try to click on a link to www.bookbub.com/ in Google Reader and feedly, I get the following message:
"Firefox prevented this site from opening 1 popup window", with an option box to either:
option 1 - "Block popups from google.com" (or feedly.com) - I want the opposite of this!
option 2 - "Edit popup blocker options"
option 3 - "Show www.bookbub.com/deals"
If I click on option 3 ("Show www.bookbub.com/deals"), this website is still being blocked.
If I choose option 2 (allow popups from google and feedly), this website is still being blocked.
So, in Firefox Options settings, the popup blocker box is now unticked - popups are unblocked - but this website is still being blocked.
This is the only site which is blocked. All links to other websites open correctly from Google Reader and/or Google Search. To bypass this unwanted block and access the website, I have to type the url in the address bar.
I would much prefer to simply open it as I do with all other websites from Google reader or feedly, with a simple click on a link.
Suggestions welcome, thank you.
Edited to add:
Same problem when clicking on a link to this website from Google Search (website blocked by Firefox), yet no such problem when clicking the link within *this* post... ?!
No problem whatsoever opening the website from any link in Chrome.

After several checks, the website appears to be blocked by Adblock Plus and/or Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon.
The message was clearly marked "*Firefox* prevented this popup" and I never even thought of looking elsewhere.
I will trawl through the filters to find the blocking rule.
Thanks a lot for the reply.

How can I unblock Java 7.55 on Firefox 29?

Working with a training site that requires Java. I have the latest Java Runtime build (7-55), Firefox blocks seem to be noted specifically on builds 25 to 44, but maybe later builds as well. My build is blocked.
I've tried an article that describes unblocking on a trusted site, but cannot find how to get the Java icon into the address bar to access unblock options.
Compaq Presario running XP, 2.2 GB memory, 500 GB disk space, ADSL2+ connection to supplier.
The base problem is delay and distortion of sounds in games designed to measure reflex speed, and Java being blocked is the only incompatibility I can find with published requirements.

Thanks for trying, Jaya.
The option "Always Activate" is not offered, only a choice between "Ask to Activate" which seems ineffective, and "Never activate".
Attached is a copy of the screen I think is involved.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

I was on facebook and deleted an icon by using the right-click menu but then all my pictures and all profile pictures, could no longer be seen. I was able to view them in Explorer so this is something I did in Firefox. How can I unblock a site?'

'''I was on facebook and deleted an icon by using the right-click menu but then all my pictures and all profile pictures, could no longer be seen. I was able to view them in Explorer so this is something I did in Firefox. How can I unblock a site?'''

If you select that right-click context menu entry then you block all images from that domain and not one specific image, so do not use that.
* Check the exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions (e.g. sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net)
You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
* Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
* Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
* Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
* Go to the Media tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
* Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
* If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

How can I unblock an e mail with popups?

An email has been forwarded to me. I cannot open it and a window appears saying the browser is blocking popups. How can I unblock that particular e mail?

Don't you see a pop-up block icon on the right hand side of the location (address) bar?
Permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab can be managed here:
* Tools > Page Info > Permissions
* https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Site+Identity+Button.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

N9 Bluetooth not working (how can I unblock a cert...

Hello,
my bluetooth is no working (when i try to turn it on it does not turn on; no problem reported).
Problem started while driving the car and the phone was pairing with the cars system constantly, it bothered me and had no time to turn of blutetooth. When the phone asked if I blocks a certain file (don't know the name) from starting pairing I pushed "yes". Since then the bluetooth is not working.
Did 'restore settings', no change. Do not wont to clear device or go to Nokia care.
Can I type something in terminal to fix this (how can I unblock a certain process)?
Thx.

Whatever else you shouldn't need to go to Nokia Care as device software can always be re-installed using standalone Nokia Software Updater:http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/...erSetup_EN.exe

How can i delete a website made in iWeb from MobileMe but not from iWeb

The problem is that I have made changes to several pages (almost all of them) on my site and since the changes my site no longer displays correctly in Internet Explorer.
I have looked in the IE CSS file and the CSS file for IE is completely messed up and would take a long time to correct by correcting the code for every page, so I decided just to delete the whole site from MobileMe and then republish it as a new site, rather then as an altered site.
The problem is I don't want to delete the site from iWeb, because it has took me months to build it and I don't want to have to start again. I just want to delete the site from MobileMe, so I can republish it as a new site (and hopefully correct the screwed up code).
So how can I delete a website created in iWeb and published on MobileMe from MobileMe without deleting it from iWeb.
Huge thanks
Jay

Hey thanks for your reply, unfortunately I have already tried to delete my site from iDisk >> Web >> Sites. But it said that i didn't have permission and it wouldn't delete the files.
I am loged in as an Admin and I still cant delete them
Thanks again
Jay
