I am getting popups constantly from Mozilla Firefox. It is using a sign on as d9nnarOhubcc73e1106g.alphatechboost.co.in

How do I stop these?

There is a popup option under settings, do a search, then block or allow those you want

Are these as small popups on bottom right corner of Firefox window?. If so then these are just web push notifications from sites you have allowed to send you notifications. Instead of useful information some may send you junk, spam, fake virus/trojan alerts etc. You can revoke the sites from sending you notifications as the kb article link shows.

Again these are not from Mozilla nor the Firefox web browser.
