Fao Slack Alice

[jennyjoan]

Well done what you told me to do and got as far as open menu, options, content, ticked the tick in block up - but I just closed it up as I couldn't find
"close tab" - now after doing that I am still getting the popups. Is there a special place for "close tab". Thanks Slacky

[SlackAlice]

By 'Close Tab' just go to the top of the page where the grey cross is, hovering over it with the cursor should change to a red box with a white cross inside, then just click 'close tab'

To make sure go back and try it all again and if you've got it right there should already be a 'tick' in the box.

Also, you could also go to Open Menu/Options/ General and put a tick in the box for 'Open new Windows in a new tab instead'. Then close Firefox and restart Firefox.

If after all that then you might need AdBlock Plus.

Well Slacky - tried to get that cursor but not there so used your idea of adblockplus - I had that before - downloaded and a side heading came up saying

"Firefox prevented this site (adblockplus.org) from asking you to install software on. I tried a few times but got the same side heading.

[SlackAlice]

Just click on 'Allow' provided you are getting it from

https://adblockplus.org/

I wish I knew what is going on so that I might join in with, perhaps, some helpful advice.

It now looks jennyjoan as if you have started another thread on a matter of Pop-ups. Please give a link to any original postings on the matter.

Hans.

[jennyjoan]

i did allow - I know what you are alluding to Slack - I allowed - a few times.

Sorry for annoying you like this - but I know I couldn't stand these pop ups.

[silver-bonce]

sorry wrong post

[jennyjoan]

Oh laugh oh laugh at silver bonce - she is on a different thread bless her - but mind you I may need her glasses for this bloody thread. LOL

[jennyjoan]

hans - these are the only links I can provide

I tried to unsucessfully do adblockplus and done the right thing all along but Firefox "prevented this site (adblockplus.org) from asking you to install soft ware on. That is it As Slack said there was an "allow" - so I allowed - still nothing happened.

Will start maybe some other time another new thread starting from scratch.

This AB can exhaust you.
