I keep getting pop-ups just by clicking on the browser. Pop-ups are blocked in the settings (0 exceptions), are these pop-ups built into the new FF builds?

I have uninstalled and reinstalled FF. An example of a pop-up is http://cpadominator.com/campaigns/index.php?g=mtgiftcard&src=mt&kw=hightraffic&keyw_passthru=youtube.com&target_passthrough=youtube.com

I'll get pop-ups while just clicking FF or clicking in dead space of a page (to get out of the address bar). It happens at random times and web pages.

hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by malware on your pc. please go to firefox > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.
