How do I opt out of ads permitted by latest Firefox version?
Prior to downloading the latest Firefox version, I was not plagued with these stupid ads. Now that I have the latest version downloaded, I have to put up with that crap of stupid ads. How do I eliminate them? Do I need to remove Firefox?

Where do the ads appear?
Were you previously using an ad-blocking extension such as Adblock Plus or uBlock?
If you don't mind, could you take a look at your extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
- Ctrl+Shift+a
- "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the right side:
(1) Cast a critical eye over the list in case some malware has crept in. All extensions are optional, none come with Firefox, so disable or remove anything unknown or nonessential.
(2) Disabled extensions cluster at the bottom, so check for any disabled ad blocker there.
It's also possible you got adware from somewhere.

Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon {web link} Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon extends the blocking functionality of Adblock Plus to those annoying pop-up windows that open on mouse clicks and other user actions.
