How can I prevent websites to open unwanted windows/tabs?

I use the latest version of Firefox on my MacBook. The MacBook has Snow Leopard OS with all updates installed. Recently I have been using a website to watch TV on the computer (http://http://streamallthis.me/). He has a bad habit of opening tabs in the background while I watch the show. The site, it always opens is http://http://www.putlocker.com/file/B119FD2BAC80777D . I have the popup option to prevent verified, but that doesn't stop her. Once it has opened 61 tabs in the background. Sometimes it opens so many tabs so fast that Firefox crashes. Even, it froze the computer while doing its thing. I have checked and have no virus or malware installed. I tried Safari too and it does the same thing here. Does anyone know a solution for this problem?

I maybe finally something and I don't know how I figured this out. The button on my touchpad has been occasionally stick (the computer is 7 years old) and when I press or accidentally press the button, the web site opens the pages of ads. I tell myself that the button is stuck in the position pressed, causing many commercials online open at a time. I was very careful to not support the button today and opened only occasionally an ad. Also, when I move the computer while watching a movie, the button seems to rely on its own too. I never would have guessed that it was a hardware problem. It is also the reason that the same problem happened with Safari. Unfortunately, I have no money to replace or repair the computer, I have to live with it. Thanks for sticking with me on this problem. I'll post in the next few days that the problem has been resolved, if nothing more.

  • How can I configure firefox to open a new tab for each new search?

    Each search I've done since the last update, Firefox open the new in the old tab. I have already fixed the Boolean value in browser.search.openintab true in everything: config, but it works only with google search (and not, for example with youtube search).

    This combination works for me:

    • Browser.Search.openintab = true
    • YouTube search plugin installed from YouTube (when green + appeared on the magnifying glass icon on the search bar)

      • by clicking the "punctual".
      • make YouTube the default search engine

    How about other search plugins: those who do not like Google or YouTube?

    I noticed that you have several extensions. Could one of these be alter the functioning of the search bar? You could test mode without failure of Firefox. It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

    You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
    • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still works

    After stops in Firefox, a small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not reset).

    Any difference?

  • How can I prevent the Thunderbird goes directly to the next message after you delete that I read?

    How can I prevent the Thunderbird goes directly to the next message after you delete that I read? I want to return to the list of all incoming mail, so I can choose what email I open then. I could see something that I don't want to open at all, but the way it is set up right now, it opens the following email automatically.

    Thank you. I don't want to download an add-on, so I tried the messages pane, and I guess it will do. I used Thunderbird a few years ago and he used to have an option where it would go after deleting a message during the consultation in its own window. But I think I can live with this option. so thank you once again.

  • How can I prevent videos automatically start when I load a web site?

  • How can I control which page opens when I open a new tab?

    Let, for example, I use a browser, Mozilla firefox. I want that when I open a new tab, it will open a site I choose, say, Google.How can I do this? How can I prevent all programs attempt to change my choice? Please, solve my problem by considering separately the "Mozilla firefox, Opera, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer".

    Sure.  Go to Facebook and set it as your homepage.  Then create the bookmark that I described.  Hold down the Ctrl key when you click to open Google in a new tab.

    However, many browsers have a search box and you should be able to designate Google as default search provider therefore by entering a string in the search field, you will automatically use Google.
