sites create new windows and play behind current window not a tab no soumd?
Hello, I would like to stop certain porn sites from playing videos in a window that they are able to open and hide behind the open window. This appears to be a major flaw to allow this. I do not know what this is called in the settings.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for a good ad / pop-up blocker.
fredmcd, I could use an add blocker but I also want to know how I can prevent a site opening windows without consent as well as the other menues that modzilla allows.
Many blockers can be set up as to what they block.
A good one is; https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/ uBlock Origin by Raymond Hill Finally, an efficient blocker. Easy on CPU and memory.
I had UBlock and I could not delete it whatever I tried. There are also sites that put up annoying buttons. Is this the only way?
Hello splash1,
A stab in the dark but would you check this please :
Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)
Type in the search bar media.autoplay.
and check these settings :
media.autoplay.enabled.user-gestures-needed = true
media.autoplay.ask-permission = true
media.autoplay.default = 0 [0=Allowed, 1=Blocked, 2=Prompt]
If you have to change anything, then close and restart Firefox.
If the above doesn't make a difference either, then maybe you could give this extension a try :
