to all firefox users!!!!

i know i know i know this is not the right spot for this but i know ill hit alot more people in here then anywhere else


heres the thing say your on yahoo or myspace and you get all the pop ups from things mostly from "pop-up.*****" well i know how to disable that but yet not disable everything else!!


heres what you do works on all firefox versons

open a new tab

type in about:config into a new tab

then just click ok if your to scared then live with all the pop ups trust me you will love it

then right click anywhere on the window and go to

new > interger

and type this in word for wird letter for letter

privacy.popups.disable_from_plugins

click ok an dset the value to 2 and your all done if forsay it dont do anything just restart firefox and your done your all welcome and injoy!!!!


you at your own risk1!

I use Opera for everything but torrents.

I use firefox for torrents and stuff like that, ive used firefox for many years and ive never had any of those pop ups, even before i used opera. The only anti virus i have is AVG....
