before whenever the site i was up wanted to have a popup, firefox would block it and a warning would appear, i hit the wrong button which made this warning stop appearing and now i cant figure out how to get the warning back. The warning would also allow me to choose to allow that specific pop up.

I have the same problem too, Options / Content / 'Block pop-up windows' doesn't enable the warning. if 'Block pop-up windows' is checked FF blocks the pop ups, if it is unchecked FF allows popup. But the meesage "firefox prevented this site opening a popup windows" doesn't show up. How I can get the message back ?
