Firefox help!

[Leah]

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.

sounds like some malware. go into uninstall programs and see if you see something that was added recently that is like Scorpion adplus or someting

hmmm, seems to be that Lightshot was the culprit.

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.
