How do I block these ads that have started popping up recently

In the last couple of days, I have noticed these ads popping up at the bottom of my screen, it slides to the right. Then I get a huge ad in the middle of my screen. Then I click inside a box while I am on a website and a whole new window open behind firefox which is an ad as well. I could have upwards of 20-30 open at a time. When I click inside a box, getting my mouse in place adn left click it opens the window.
In addition, when I am on a website with writing, there may be a few words randomly highlighted in blue which if you hover over it there is an ad.
How do I get rid of this? It is sooooooo frustrating. I checked my ad blocker is on and up to date.

use this addon: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/ Adblock Plus]

  • How can I block inappropriate ads?

    There are inappropriate ads that are on websites that I frequently use. These ads did not use to pop up. how can I block these?

    Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br>
    Please 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.

  • My email has been hacked by an adware sending me 12 ads per day.  How can I block those ads?

    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Problems
    If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide and The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Tool. Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
    See these Apple articles:
      Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
      OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
      OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
      OS X Mavericks- Protect your Mac from malware
      About file quarantine in OS X
    If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using ClamXAV. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for this recommendation.)
    From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
    The facts are:
    1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
    2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
         is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
    3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
         the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
         techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
    4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
        your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
        protection against malware.
    5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
        from which they purport to protect you.
    6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
    7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
    8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
        you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
    9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

  • I am using an Macbook pro in conjunction with a Time Capsule. I back up all my aperture librarys on it, but how can i view these images that are stored on the capsule please ??

    I am using an Macbook pro in conjunction with a Time Capsule. I back up all my aperture librarys on it, but how can i view these images that are stored on the capsule please ??

    If you want to see what is in a file that is backed up by time machine then you have to restore the entire file. Having said that I have had good experience with Time Machine and individual files... if the file is there then all of it's components are almost for sure there. A way to get around this in Aperture would be to use referenced images. The images then still exist as individual files and can be backed up and restored individually. You would have to do so on a file by file basis though and your album information would still only be saved within the Aperture library.

  • 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.
    * see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone <br/>& consider changing the preference manually

  • How can I block a number that calls me persistently every single day but only shows 3458  it does not show the full 10 digit

    how can I block a number that calls me persistently every single day but only shows 3458  it does not show the full 10 digit so on your block page will not let me block it!!!  So frustrated and I am not answering it with all the hackers out these days I don't want to give them access to my phone.

        @lottsandy
    I can understand your frustrations and concerns with receiving these unknown calls!  I would love to assist you with preventing these types of calls.
    Sounds as though you're receiving some type of telemarketing call.  Although you're unable to add the shorter numbers to your call block list, you can definitely add your number to the National Do Not Call registry http://1.usa.gov/1whONxp.  I hope this will help prevent those unwanted calls.  Thanks!

  • How to check the sales orders that have been created with an Rebate Agreeme

    Dear Experts,
    Do you know how to check the sales orders that have been created with an Rebate Agreements?
    Thanks!!

    Hi Hoo Laa,
    I have one way but little lengthy.
    Rebate condition always appears in the billing document.
    So 1st you extract the sales order list from Table VBAK.
    once you have the sales order list then you can put your order list in Table VBFA --> Extract the billing document list.
    Now put that list in the table VBRK.
    In VBRK you will get the "Doc. condition" --> put that doc condition in table KONV with your rebate condition type.
    It will show the result.
    Later, through VLOOKUP you can identify in which order you have given rebate to your customer.
    Already said, Little lengthy
    Regards,
