Hi there!


« on: February 18, 2014, 12:19:54 PM »

So I have Firefox, and I like it and all, I have Adblock Plus on, yet there's something wrong. If I click on a sub link on a website, I get a popup in a new tab. I have no idea what is going on, either Adblock plus is messed up or there's something else going on.

You could go into tools > add-ons > extensions and check that there's nothing in there you didn't put there yourself.  You may have to uninstall it in addition to removing it via the extensions manager.

Last time there was some big Firefox update it added some malware type crap in there for me.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
