I would like to stop pop-up notifications
I get pop-up notifications up in the corner from Facebook and after I clear the cache. This is new since I installed FF 32.

You can inspect and manage permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
- Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
- Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
- Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab
This includes the permission to show notifications. I don't know if what you see falls under such a notification.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

What is it showing? Is it a message, add or what?
Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for a good add / pop-up blocker.
They're not adds, they're little notifications in the upper right corner, from different programs like Facebook, or the Apple store about updates. It's not just Facebook, it's been a couple different websites. I'll try to catch it with a screen grab.
