I never had pop-ups using firefox ever , and I've been using it for a year. Now I keep geting pop-ups for porn,adverts, etc. I ran a scan with spybot serach and destroy, and AVG anti virus, but nothing comes out. They are fully updated btw. i got rid of a trojan though yesterday that kept disconnecting me from the internet and turning of windows update. I made sure it was gone, and it should be gone. Does anybody know why I keep getting pop-ups now? Could it be the firefox 3 update that I just installed a few hours ago?

Edit: Nvm I just ran a scan and it's the virtualmonde trojan that is back.

Make sure Block pop-up windows is enabled!

Stick with Firefox 2, maybe a bug in Firefox 3
