Pop-up advertisements

I-Firefox Extensions

I've appreciated using Firefox as my laptop browser for several years. However, now I've been getting full page pop-up advertisements that are beyond annoying since they appear in the middle of my logging on to sites. It is very worrying to see another screen pop up in between my entering a user name and a password. I have to wonder who is seeing my personal information? How do I stop these pop-ups besides choosing another browser? Thanks. Andrew Zacharias

That comes from whatever sites your visiting. Maybe clear cache and see if that doesn't stop them and if not then it site related not something Firefox browser can do since it from the site itself.
