Adds just start playing through the sound system seemingly at random. I cannot figure out how to stop it.
sometimes when I click on a page, any page. An add starts playing. Usually I cannot see it. After I went into Adobe and made it ask for permission to play or listen or use the camera, it popped up but deny would not work.

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
- Microsoft Safety Scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
