Can't open requested popups
Last week, I started having a problem opening requested popups. (As in, clicking a button to leave a comment on a blog or clicking pinterest "pin it" buttons, when after you click them, a popup window should open.) I downloaded the newest version of Firefox and they stopped working. I restarted my computer again and they worked again, but only for a couple days. I have tried restarting and tried changing the settings to allow popups, but nothing helps anymore.
What I have to do to get to the information now is right click and say open in a new tab, then I get the requested information. But that's a pain and I would really like for the popups to just pop up for me again.
I am using Firefox 11.0 on a Windows 7 computer. Anyone know how I can fix this?

I had always kept that box checked, but tried unchecking it yesterday. It didn't help either. But since uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox earlier today, I've had nothing but problems. I can't even get it to open anymore. So I am uninstalling it and moving to Opera. But thank you for your suggestions!

Hello friend you've tried uninstalling and reinstalling to see if it solves the problem? This began happening after you installed any plugin or not? If yes try to uninstall firefox and all plugins together and then install it again. To see if resolve.Caso contact us resolve to try to resolve your problem as soon as possible.
Thank you for your reply. I had not installed any new plugins before the problem started. I just now uninstalled and re-installed Firefox and it didn't solve it. Still can't open popups. :(
Check out the photo I sent you and see if this option is selected in your firefox, if the error persists warns me that I contact other contributors.

It is possible that you run into this pop-up maximum (the default value is 20).
