I have installed Ublock Origin.

What I need help with is pinning the extension icon to the icon toolbar. This is important with Ublock Origin because it lets you quickly tell the extension to stop blocking the current domain.

Thank you!

I did not knowingly install an ad blocker on Firefox, but clearly I have one, because several sites I visit ask me to disable it. When I try to do so, I'm presented with a long list of ad blockers, and am asked to choose mine and disable it. How do I find out what my ad blocker is? I've tried to find this on Firefox, with no success. I hope someone can walk me through this.

Thanks, Janet Shapiro

I just approved an upgrade to Firefox that mentioned something about a new way of dealing with extensions. The first thing I noticed was my 1Password add-on in the toobar disappeared. I took the steps recommended by 1Password to add it back, and I can get a 1Password icon to appear on the toolbar, but it is non-functional. I confirmed 1Password is still functional with an icon in the toolbars of my other browsers. What gives?

I may have asked this before, When I launch Firefox, it opens the tab to the right of the active tab in the previous session. When I close a tab, it opens the tab to the right.

Am I wrong, or is that precisely the opposite of what you would expect or want?

Can someone please explain the logic of this? Is there anything that can be done about it?

I have this addon Select After Closing Current. Can I get some advice to set it up to work?

Also, why are there two product pages for it? link text

Too many logon pop-ups

Hello,

My university requires me to logon to use campus services every 24 hours. Upon expiration of the logon credential after the 24 hour period, a logon window will prompt to re-enter credentials. The problem is that it will continue to prompt log in with new pop up windows every few minutes so if I don't log in, for example, over night, I'll wake up to hundreds of log on window pop ups. This creates system wide slowdown due to memory resources being maxed out. I can't enable universal pop up blocks as the systems I require use pop ups and having to open each pop up manually does work in my workflow. Any solutions? Thank you!
