Yes, there are different ways to block ads and pop-ups in Firefox:

  1. Use a content blocker add-on: There are various add-ons available in Firefox that can block ads and pop-ups. Some popular ones include AdBlock Plus, uBlock Origin, and AdGuard.
  2. Enable Firefox's built-in pop-up blocker: Firefox has a built-in pop-up blocker that can be enabled in the settings. Go to the menu, click on “Preferences”, and then navigate to the “Privacy & Security” tab. Under the “Permissions” section, tick the box next to “Block pop-up windows.”
  3. Use anti-malware software: Anti-malware software such as Malwarebytes can also block ads and pop-ups by detecting and blocking malicious scripts.
  4. Modify Firefox's settings: You can also adjust Firefox's settings to block certain types of pop-ups. In the preferences menu, navigate to the “Content” tab and tick the box next to “Block pop-up windows.” You can also add specific websites to the exceptions list if you want to allow pop-ups from certain sites.
