they are ones launched from flash things I believe. no way to block them yet, but there should be soon.

Some people have indeed found ways around Firefox's built in blocker.

Get the adblock extension and import this file as a filter if you want to block pretty much everything.

or copy the stuff below the google cache thing

yeah pop ups exist on firefox. their due to spyware. if you dont have it yet get spybot search and destroy (totally free) http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html

download-install-update-check for problems-imunize- and your done. no more pop ups. anytimes you see a pop up tun spybot and it will rid you of all pop ups until the people find new loopholes

yeah I got the Aurora pop ups a while ago. they come with a program that you install. I couldnt get rid of them and eventually reformated. I figured out after reformating how to get rid of it though. so here it goes:

1- uninstall all silly programs you got. any utilities you downloaded for free delete them.

2- have AVG and Spybot Search and destroy (and have them up to date)

3-go into your java console (you should find it in control panel) and delete all files that java has in its cache (this is the most importatn thing)

4- run both avg and spybot search and destroy. first spybot then avg.

it should be gone after that. and just watch what you download becasue Aurora comes with a program that tells you "we will install Aurora on your system"
