Every time I click on something on the main tab, another one open with some type of add. Also, I want to stop all the pop-up adds. If this can't be done I will be uninstalling Firefox.

Hello ferdshill, you can try Adblock Plus add-on

thank you

You also can check for an add-on causing this problem.

Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized add-ons on these two tabs. Unless you know you can't live without it for 24 hours, disable it.

orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Plugins category
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category

If you see a link above an extension to restart Firefox, you can wait until you are done with your changes and then click that as the last step.
