posted 4 years agoIn the latest Version 2.1 you can enable "New Window Allowlist" which should fix the issue. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15197695, 5 years agoExactly what I needed. It catches all the new windows and tabs a lot of scummy/annoying sites love to force open, despite how settings are set.
Thank you soooooo much. At most all I have to deal with is a white flash that's over in the blink of an eye. Much better than new windows/tabs.
Bonus points for a 20s timer option so I don't need to turn it on/off wholesale. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14764153, 6 years agoFINALLY ... a popup blocker that works! I'm just using the "Smart Light" mode and it's blocking the popups without hindering the rest of the pages that I want.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14759635, 6 years agoIt's the best popup blocker I've used so far and it catches unwanted new tabs also which great, I've seen junk sneak through that way before.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14696639, 6 years agoits acctually works unlike the other bullshit. Well done Joofthan
- Rated 5 out of 5by drunk, 6 years agoOne of the best popupblockers for firefox ! Just because he can block - new tab -, that makes it very effective adblocker. It completes with strict popup blocker. Cheers for developer.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14581251, 6 years agoHas ALL the features that are missing in "Strict Pop-Up Blocker" including whitelists
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14160838, 6 years agoDoes what it should - blocks a lot of unwanted popups without calling those most annoying messages 'Disable your adblocker or you won't see anything'.
However when I want to open a new browser window (via it is quite annoying this also gets handled as 'unwanted popup'. I have to disable the popup or at least the 'block new window' feature to get my second browser windows. I consider this a bug that should be ironed out.Developer response

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14403342, 6 years agoI use a mac version of firefox if that matters. This add-on would get five stars, but it prevents you from opening new windows on your own. If I tell firefox to open a new window it just closes immediately. I have to temporarily disable it in order to open a second window.

I have some pop-ups that are full screen only, and I cannot get to the icon to choose Add to Blacklist. Other than this, I like the blocking ability, especially when watching streaming videos.

posted 6 years agoThank you for your feedback. I made version 2.0.1 which solves the issue. - Rated 5 out of 5by Damon-William-Tellegen, 7 years agoFANTASTIC, EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! THE SMART LIGHT FEATURE IS PRETTY SMART TOO.
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH DEV - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13893631, 7 years agoBlocks everything thrown at it so far. Even blocks new windows (Finally a single instance add-on!!!). All other popup blockers have allowed pop-unders. Works perfectly with ublock origin.
White and Black lists are also included.
Many Thanks for developing the best blocker available.Developer response
