I have no place to check "block pop ups". I normally go to tools, options, content but it's not there anymore.

Chosen solution

Block pop-up windows should still be in Options > Content.
The two others for images and JavaScript have been removed.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
