    On Firefox there is a pop-up that does not close even using all of these tips. It does not close even when I restart my computer and enter the browser. Can you help?

    Open Task Manager by holding Ctrl + Shift + Esc, and right-click on Firefox and stop the process. Open Firefox again and navigate to Settings, and under Content Settings, clear website cache, history, etc. Then restart your PC.

    How do I close my unnecessary tabs?
    Community Answer
    There is an X on each tab you can click on to close it. If you have too many tabs open, you may not be able to see the X until you click on the tab to activate it.

    I've run into an ad that opens in a new window which constantly opens pop ups that block you from closing the page, basically forcing you to restart the browser. Is there any way to block this at all?

    Get an adblocker and an antivirus, delete every suspicious thing ever from your computer, and turn on internet security help such as disabling cookies, blocking pop-ups, etc.
