how do I block "ads not by this site" from appearing ?
Ads appear on pages being viewed eg. MSN. How can these be blocked since they generally appear over text so it's not readable.

I have been using Firefox with no problems for over a year. Now, yesterday, for the first time, when I turned my computer on and started Firefox, it did not save my multiple tabs! I lost them all! So, after rebuilding and starting all over (including my 3 pinned tabs), I shut down my computer.
This morning, again, same thing. The 11 tabs I had opened did not re-open (just one main tab) and my 3 pinned tabs are again - GONE!
Why is this happening all of a sudden? This is very discouraging. Please provide step-by-step instructions on how to make sure this does not keep happening. I want to save multiple tabs (and pinned tabs) and have them all open whenever I go online please!
Thanks, Cass

So in every advertisement link, and email link i press/get I get this massage.......
Problem loading page. The connection was reset. The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
1) First there are times the advertisement itself shows the massage, at that point I don't even know whats there. 2) Then there are time when the advertisement shows but when I go to press the link I deal with #1 again . 3) When I go to type the advertisement in a search engine (If I saw what it was) it comes up just find. 4) This being the worst is when I go to press a links I get in any email even college emails, which can get very troublesome.
I have looked at the forums the site had suggested but have already tried most all they have mentioned with no prevail. And the error is the same even with Internet Explorer. If anyone has any suggestions please tell me and I will try them all even if its ones I have already heard of. Also just to mention I keep my history, cookies and what not where it will never remember anything that way I keep it clean.

When i go to my homepage (Yahoo), these ads pop up and flash to get your attention. As many as three or four ads at a time. Do I have a malware problem or what?

I have been experiencing this problem for a few weeks now and I've been searching the internet for an answer but I cant find any information about it anywhere. Basically this is what happens:
1. I'll go to some webpage, it doesn't matter which page or what website its on, it seems to happen randomly from time to time. 2. I'll notice that when I mouse-over any of the links on the page that the mouse doesn't turn into the little pointing finger, the mouse just continues to look like the regular arrow. 3. The first click I make ANYWHERE on the page will cause an ad to open up in another tab and it will switch to that tab. 4. I close the tab and go back to my original tab and the page works normally now.
I have removed or disabled all suspicious looking addons, and I have also uninstalled a program that looked suspicious. I also ran a scan with Malwarebytes and it found a few 'infections' but the problem persists even after removing them. I know that the ads aren't part of the pages I visit. For example I was filling out a job application for Del Taco or something and I had this problem on one of the pages. Also I run a website and it even happens on my own website sometimes! Also just today Firefox randomly shutdown for no reason at all, one second I'm watching a Youtube video, the next second and looking at my desktop. No error, no nothing. I restarted Firefox and It gave me the "Well this is embarrassing" page. Any help would be greatly appreciated. BTW I'm using Windows 7 64 bit

Quite often I receive a message after clicking on Firefox saying 'Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.' Why does Firefox not close properly and the process stay running?? I am seriously thinking of moving to google chrome and abandoning firefox because of this error. It isnt my system because it happens on my laptops and friends computers too. I could expect the odd crash with firefox but not as many as I am experiencing. I normally get this error around 4 to 5 times a week
I am on the Firefox start page, and can't see 'tools'. Can you help me?

I'm using Windows 7 Home premium on an HP Pavilion laptop. Maybe two weeks ago, I stopped being able to create new folders in the Windows Explorer box; I click the "New Folder" button, and nothing happens: no error message, nothing. Around two weeks ago, I also reinstalled Firefox to get rid of some adware virus (success: the adware is gone!). I do not recall the exact timing on when I did the reinstall and when I stopped being able to create new folders, but I'm wondering if the folder problem could be related to the re-install. And if so, what can I do about it? Thanks so much for any help you can offer.

On EVERY website i go to I get pop up ads or a new smaller page pops up and says "about blank" in the address field. They make the websites look different like they have to make room for ads. Also sometimes there is a hidden link that when I click on something it takes my to a whole other website.
"VisualBee" appears on any new tab. I tried the "Search reset" add-on but this did not work.
Loaded firefox up today and my whole history was gone.
Had approx 7 months worth of browsing and its all gone.

The PC hangs completely, no keyboard or mouse response. The system is very stable and never crashes when not using firefox. The only version which works without crashing the PC is 3.6.28, but this has a few rendering problems and some websites don't display properly. I have turned on crash reporting, but it never produces a report. I have done a firefox reset, but makes no difference. The system never stays up for more than 10 minutes. I have turned off hardware acceleration. What do you need from me to help identify the cause?
