Sometimes, very rarely, firefox opens up one of those scam websites that urge you to type in your windows username + password or want you to install some stuff. I don't have malware on my system, it's just that i visit sites that sometimes redirect to those scams.

The annoying thing about those sites is that they have some JavaScript behind that loops to show you some blocking prompts that forces you to kill the entire firefox process instead of closing just that one single tab.

So, my question is: How can i disable blocking prompts entirely? I don't want to disable JavaScript from my browser. Just everything that can result in a blocking prompt.

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.

There used to be an add-on for pages just like that; https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/disallow-script-button But . . . . Not compatible with Firefox Quantum

A way out of a trap page is to (force it if needed) Close Firefox. Wait about 20 seconds for Firefox to finish closing. Right-click on the Firefox icon and select Open New Window. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Sometimes this works. If it opens, close it by Menu > File > Exit. This will flush out that web page from the Session Store.
