In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:

From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select Add-ons, or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the Tools menu and click Add-ons.

Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the Extensions button on the left side of the window.

You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.

To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the Remove button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.

Thank you smo!!! I had no idea where to even start - now I 've learned a lot about how all the plug-ins and extensions work and how to better manage them

I've yet to see if all the really bad pop-ups will cease to plague me, but now I'm confident that I know where to look for solutions.....
