How do I permanently block unwanted ads on-line?
An ad for Consumer News that's somehow associated with Google about an amazing offer has kept popping up and preventing altogether my getting to anything else on my laptop. I'm hoping someone will be able to tell me how I can block that thoroughly obnoxious ad and any other unwanted ads.

If excess popups are occuring when you load websites, you may have disabled popup blocking. See Pop-up blocker settings, exceptions and troubleshooting for steps to enable.
The most likely cause of excess popups on sites that should not have them, such as Google search pages, is spyware.
- Ensure you don't have any Firefox extensions that may be affecting the behavior of websites. See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems for instructions on testing whether extensions are causing a problem.
2. See Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware to determine whether spyware is likely causing the issue
If you determine malware is the problem, You can run and update the following free antivirus software:
1. Malwarebytes (Free version) - http://www.malwarebytes.org
2. Spybot Search & Destroy - http://www.safer-networking.org
3.Spyware Terminator - http://www.spywareterminator.com
In addition, there are a number of forums you can use to help get rid of your infection. These include:
