The "block pop ups" box is checked off, but every website i go to I get pop ups that are (sometimes) related to each site with surveys, prizes etc. So incredibly annoying. I never had this before but now, each site i go to gets a pop up.

hello, this sounds like your system got infected with malware, please perform a full system scan with your security software already in place and the free tool from malwarebytes.org & see if there are any results.

Hi, You can easily do this by going to options->content and check Block pop-up window. and it is good idea to install AdBlock addon to block ads. and scan your system once with antimalware and antivirus software.

let me know if it works :)
