Temporarily Allow Pop-Ups in Firefox by Disabling the Pop-Up Blocker
Note that this method should only be used as a temporary measure. You generally encounter more bad pop-ups than good, and your Web-browsing experience will be worse off in the long run if you allow all pop-ups to come through. So once you have followed the steps below to stop blocking pop-ups and completed whatever task you needed to complete, it’s a good idea to return to the Firefox Options menu and re-enable the pop-up blocker. Step 1: Open the Firefox browser. Step 2: Click the orange Firefox tab at the top-left corner of the window.
Step 3: Click Options in the column on the right side of the menu, then click Options again.
Step 4: Click the Content tab at the top of the window.
Step 5: Click the box to the left of Block pop-up windows to clear the check mark, then click the OK button at the bottom of the window.
As mentioned earlier, you should probably go back and turn the pop-up blocker on again after you have completed your task. If you also use Google’s Chrome browser and have been looking for a way to view content from that browser on your TV, then the Google Chromecast may be a good device for you. It’s small, affordable, easy to use, and can even stream content from Netflix, YouTube and Google Play. Click here to learn more about the Chromecast.
