I have Windows 7, and using Firefox 33.1, There is a website that I need to go to pay a bill, the people there say that I can't get on their website if I have my pop-up blocker turned on. How do I shut it off. Please contact me when answered. xxxxxxx.xx@gmail.com

Thanks Brucie.

edited email from public as nobody but spam bots would email a public email. You should get a email when there is a reply.

If FireFox is blocking a popup, go to the bookmarks toolbar. Left click (Edit). Scroll down to (Preferences) and left click. Left click on (Content). At this point you can uncheck the (Block all popups) box, not recomended, or left click on (Exceptions). On the (Address of Website) line copy and paste the Main address of the website. Example: https://www.xxxxx.com Not: https://www.xxxxx.com/yyy/zzzz.1561135435 If you have 3rd party popup blockers you will need to restet as nessasary.
