How do I stop the pop up screens from popping up? I just want the screen I ask for to open

What is the wording of the message? Could you post a screen shot showing what it looks like? This article has tips on how to do that: How do I create a screenshot of my problem?

Also, does the add-on TopArcadeHits sound familiar? You might want to try disabling it here:

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

Then restart Firefox (usually there is a handy link for this after disabling).

It turns out the add on "TopArchadeHits" was the culprit. I am going to post a warning on face book to beware of this annoying product. I don't know how it got added to my Firefox to start with.
