How do I block a website from being loaded automatically from another website?

I want to be able to instruct Firefox to block certain web pages/sites from loading. (The particular problem is certain sites which I DO want to view automatically opening other web pages/sites in new Firefox windows.) There ought surely to be a facility in the Options menu or elsewhere to specify particular sites to be blocked from loading, but I can't find one. I'm sure the hated Internet Explorer had such a facility. Where is it in Firefox?

You can try Adblock Plus:

  • How to disable App tabs (pined tabs) from being started automatically?

    how to disable App tabs (pined tabs) from being started automatically?
    because the option [Don't load tabs until selected] dose not work with it, and it keeps starting every time when I restart Firefox.
    Please help me!

    Don't bother, I reached to the solution by my self, you can do it as following:
    Type "about:config" [ without quotation marks! ] in the Location Bar (address bar) and press Enter to display the list of preferences, as shown in the picture '''#1''' in Firefox 17 on Windows 7.
    If you see a page with the warning message as shown in picture '''#2''', This might void your warranty!, click the button labeled "I'll be careful, I promise!", to continue (in fact, there is no warranty whatsoever, it's more a joke to ensure that users are aware of what they are about to do). uncheck the check-box there to avoid the warning in the future.
    Now at the search bar in the picture '''#3''' type: ''tab'' and look for the
    '''preference name:'''
    browser.sessionstore.restore_pinned_tabs_on_demand
    or you can '''copy''' it directly to the search bar,
    '''Next,''' follow the instruction in picture '''#3''' .
    Just in case if the pictures didn't appear, do ''these steps'':
    '''First:''' Right click at the preference name that we searched for.
    '''Next,''' click Toggle to change the value from false to true.
    '''Or,''' double click on it and it will change.
    '''Finally,''' restart Firefox and you will notice that they don't load automatically until you click on it.
    That's it, Good luck to all. ''';-)'''
    '''Note''': The bolded font preferences list is the user modified, and the un-bolded is the default setting.
    '''Warning''': Modifying preferences can, in rare circumstances, break Firefox, Thunderbird or the Mozilla Suite, or can cause strange behavior. Only do so if you know what you are doing or are following trustworthy advice.
    Additional INFO:
    about:config is a feature of Mozilla applications which lists application settings (known as preferences) that are read from the profile files prefs.js and user.js, and from application defaults. Many of these preferences are not present in the Options or Preferences dialog. Using about:config is one of several methods of modifying preferences and adding other "hidden" ones.

  • Prevent data from being loaded into certain dimensions

    Is there any way to prevent data from being loaded into certain dimensions? For example, if I have 2 dimensions: Scenario and Date, I only want a given Scenario to accept data in certain date ranges.
    Thanks,
    Jason

    I'll assume you mean by load rules. If you are talking about sending data from Excel, then the first one only is the answer.
    There are two ways I can think of doing this.
    1. create filters with write access to certain intersections and use an Id associated to that filter to load the data
    2. Use selection/rejection criteria in the load rule to limit what can be loaded
    As a bonus
    3. If you are using SQL interface loads, set up a table with what data is allowed to be leded.

  • When i try to click on the website,why it will jump to another website?

    when i try to click on something in safari,the mouse will open another website.something like advertisement website..

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • How to prepare Block Structure data for D/A output from DIAdem

    Dear Sir:
    I'm trying to do D/A convert from DIAdem and DAQCard6062E,whereas when I located the data file to be output, and specified the channel, DIAdem gave the Error as following:
    --Error-- DIAdem
    Error from DAC simulation input file(read data file)
    The DAT file'...'must have Block Strucure!!!
    What I want to know is how to prepare or how to save my *.tdm file to a file of Block Strucure.
    Thank you very much
    jing

    Hi jing,
    i think there´s no chance to do online reading with tdm-files.
    There are two ways to solve your problem:
    1. Using the "channel simulation block" to read data out of DIAdem data cache.
    2. Store as DAT.File named in 8.3-notation using block-format.
    I don´t know the english menue-items, but all you need is in the Files.menu selection "DAT-Files".
    By the way:
    If you change the setting in the "datastorage-dialog" from "data area" to "file" for recording data, you´ll get a "playable" DAT-File.

  • How to prevent invitations from being sent automatically by Siri/iCloud/iCal?

    I have recently discovered, through a series of embarrassing events, that when I use Siri to schedule an appointment with someone, that person automatically receives an email from iCloud inviting them to my appointment. I do not even get a prompt asking me if I want to send them an email. These emails are being sent without my knowledge or approval! This can happen with a Siri command as simple as "schedule coffee with John on Friday morning at 10:00." I want to see an appointment in my calendar called "Coffee with John" at the appropriate time. I do not want to see "Coffee with John Doe" (last name added automatically) and have John receive an invitation by email. What setting do I use to change this?

    Hello Vtgolfr, 
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like the Calendar event that you created on your iPhone included your brother's email address. Before saving an event in the future, you may want to check the invitee field to see if his email is being populated by Siri when you create a calendar event.
    You can find more information about Calendar invitations in the iOS 8 User Guide:

  • How to prevent Pivot Table Data Source from being changed automatically?

    I have an excel file that contains a Pivot Table that references a table within the workbook (Data Source = "MyTable").  When I save the file and copy it, the copy contains a reference to the original file.  Instead of displaying, "MyTable",
    it shows  "OldFilename!MyTable" where OldFilename is the name of the original file, not the current file.
    How do I prevent this from occurring.  It is only doing this on my current machine, if I perform these steps on a different machine, the problem does not occur and the Data Source property stays the same as it should.
    What setting(s) do I change to fix this problem?
    Thank you in advance for your help!

  • How i can i prevent Apps from being dragged out from dock?

    Before Mavericks i once applied some switch via command line that prevented removing Applications via dragging out.
    But this way it still allowed changing the order or still allowed remvoing via right-click menu.
    Sadly i cannot find the command anymore and all solutions i found after googling use the immutable boolean which results in a completely statically locked Dock. But this is not what i'm looking for.
    How can i specifically disable the drag-out removal of Apps from the Dock?
    Thanks!

    You can't. You can only "hide" them.

  • HT1692 how do i stop my calendar events being deleted automatically after a month or so?

    I cannot keep calendar events - how do i change this , it should be so simple.

    If you normally sync to your computer via iTunes there is a setting in iTunes for how many days back you keep calendar events.
    If you don't normally sync to your computer I'm not sure  if there is a way to keep calendar events around longer.

  • HT204384 I don't want my pictures to start loading automatically from my SD card.  How to I stop the auto load to my computer?

    When I put my SD card into my imac it automatically starts loading into an autoload program.  I don't want this to happen.  I want to be able to just open my card and drag my files where I want them to be.
    I cannot figure out how to turn this feature off.  Please help me with this.
    Thanks

    Just to cover all possibilities, open iPhoto > Preferences and make sure you have the same "no application" marked there:
    And, make sure your Finder Preferences are set to show external disks on the desktop - that way, your card's icon on the desktop and you can do with the pictures as you wish.
    @ Joe: did you edit your post? I swear that last sentence of yours wasn't there when I started typing........

  • Prevent popup from being moved automatically

    Hi,
    I'm using Jdev 11.1.2.3.
    I hava a issue with popup.
    Firstly, I move my popup, After then, I scroll down, my popup auto move according to the scrollbar.
    I don't want my popup move like that
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks and best regards!
    Thanh Hoang

    Hi,
    you cannot move popups out of the visible view context. If this is the requirement then you need to close the popup or use - better - use e.g. a panel box that you display as part of the page and that you show/hide similar to launching the popup.

  • How to keep Reader from being installed if running Pro? Running Acrobat X Pro. Occaisionally, a website with a PDF triggers Reader to be installed on my system. NEVER want reader (that's why i bought Pro). How do i keep Reader from EVER being installed?

    Running Acrobat X Pro.
    Occasionally, a website with a PDF triggers Reader to be installed on my system.
    NEVER want reader (that's why i bought Pro).
    How do i keep Reader from EVER being installed?

    I don't get a pop-up. Something triggers the Reader installer to be loaded on my system. This occurs without my knowledge. Then, the next time i go to open a PDF, instead of it opening immediately with Acrobat Pro, I get the first screen of the installation stuff for Reader (Accept/Decline Terms of use, etc.). At this point, i get out of the install, go into control panel and uninstall Reader (which is listed as a loaded program, even though i haven't finished the install). After i uninstall reader and open a PDF, it opens correctly with Acrobat Pro. This happens once or twice a month at least. Is it possible that the Adobe Acrobat Update Service task loads Reader on my system at some interval? How do i block Reader form EVER being installed or loaded?
