On opening Tbird I have started getting a Google pop up asking me to sign in to Google to continue to Tbird. This is just annoying as I can access all my email accounts without signing in to Google. I just have to close the annoying pop up every time I open Tbird. How can I stop this happening?

Perhaps remove the linked calendar, or linked address book.

I don't use Google for address book or calendar or anything else for that matter. This has only just started. If I do anything in TBird this damned pop-up appears. I always hit Deny and then a minute later it re-appears. This is precisely why I don't use Google. It's so intrusive.

Clearly you do use something, or tried to set it up and failed. It would not appear, unless there was something linked.

Perhaps post a screen shot of what the page looks like. That might offer something of a clue.
