How can I stop sites to open ads in new tabs?

I have all anti-ad on Earth, it seems, and now sites have found a workaround by forcing ads to open new tabs. Is it possible to stop these? I went back to ABP because UBlock was too aggressive and cause me problems.

You may have ad / bad-ware. More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If a program forgets something, someone else can pick it up.

  • How can I configure search to open in a new tab?

    When I do a 'google' search I want to open it in a new tab... How is that defined?

    Look at the topic: window configuration of these settings and change them:

    • Browser.Search.openintab - if true, will open a search from the search bar in a new tab if you use the return key to trigger the search
    • browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground - if true, bookmarks that open in a new tab will not fly goal
    • browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground - load the new tab in the background, leaving to focus on the current tab if it is true
    • browser.tabs.loadInBackground - not to focus new tabs opened from links (load in the background) If true
    • Browser.Tabs.opentabfor.MiddleClick - if true, links can be required to open a new tab if middle-clicked. Useful for search results.
  • How can I stop the Zoo research being my new tab popup?

    I reset my homepage to be Google, when things were diverted by Zoo research. Now I get that as the new tab when I open it and I want it to stop. I'd rather Google.

    If you want to return the default for all Google, this extension is a quick solution: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

    However, where you need it, here is the way to 'practice' more than change your the new tab page.

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

    Two traps:

    • If Firefox ignores the setting, one of your extensions may be substitution of her. You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on page modules. Either:

      • CTRL + SHIFT + a > click Extensions in the left column
      • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons > click Extensions in the left column
    • If the amendment works but at the next startup is back for the zoo, you could have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save.

    A little luck?

  • How can I make my homepage open in a new tab?

    I can't find any simple statement that will let me open open my designated in each new tab homepage. I don't want a blank page and I don't want the mozilla home page to open it.

    Firefox does not open the default homepage with a new tab, it opens the new tab page. Used to be a little easy to change that, but not anymore.

    In Firefox 41 the pref browser.newtab.url disappeared. This pref was abused by malware so frequently that Mozilla has decided to remove this pref to eliminate this kind of diversion.
    You will need an extension like this one to restore.
    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

    Or to have your home page as the new tab page, try this extension.
    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

    If you are using Classic theme restaurateur, go in the CTR options > tabs (1) article and set your preference for the new tab URL here.

    For Super Start , you can use the topic: superstart page.

  • How can I change the default zoom for the new tab only?

    The new tab in Firefox 33 zoom is too high to see all 12 of my thumb nail. I changed it using ctrl - but the next time I opened a new tab, the zoom is 100%. How can I change the default zoom for the new tab only?

    I posted a style rule to shrink the tiles, which allows several of them on the page, but naturally reduces their legibility. You can experiment with the dimensions to find a look that works for you.

    https://userstyles.org/styles/106326/shrink-new-tab-thumbnails

    I use the Stylish extension to experiment because of its preview function that allows me to see the effect quickly. You can install it from the site of modules, then after restart of Firefox while searching for his "S" icon in the toolbar to manage Styles so you can edit and experiment.

  • How can I stop Windows XP open My Documents on startuo?

    Hello

    I just reinstalled Windows XP Pro and after installation of SP2 evert time I start Windows automatically open My Documents.

    How can I stop this?

    Thank you.

    You have a false entry in one of your startup locations.

    First, click Start > all programs > startup and see if there is an entry that would open up My Documents.

    If you can't find the entry in the startup folder, download and run Autoruns.  Let it complete the scan (shown bottom left), then click the 'connection '.  Look at the entries and the beginning my Documents should be obvious.  Remove the line or uncheck the box at the beginning of the line (if you think you might ever want to reactivate this entry).

  • How can I stop Windows 7 open several instances of a .txt file in Notepad?

    If accidentally, I try to open a second instance of a .txt file in Notepad, I want Windows 7 to remember that another instance is already open.

    It was, in Windows XP, whenever you tried to accidentally open a second instance of a .txt file in Notepad, you would get a message that will tell you that another instance was already open. However, it seems that in Windows 7, you can have multiple instances of the same .txt file open in Notepad (without getting any notification). It is confusing because I tend to make changes to one of these instances given, and when I save one of these cases, I eventually overwrite the changes on other instances.

     
    How can I stop this from happening? I can't turn on a pop-up message in Windows 7 that reminds me that another instance is open? Can I change a setting in my Notepad file to prohibit the opening of multiple instances?
     

    Hello


    Opening of multiple instances of the same file in Notepad is by design.

  • How can I have the search results in a new tab?

    When I search something, regardless of the search engine used, the search results appear in the "active" tab Is there a way to configure Firefox to open a new tab and show the results of the research in this new tab automatically? Yes, I can do it manually by opening a new tab, to do research, but it would be much more "user friendly" it would be automatic.
    I use an Apple Mac Pro running Mac OS x 10.7

    To avoid extra keys or the steps and make the option to open search results in a new tab (or not) easy and convenient, install this add-on:

    As long that the checkmark next to "Open in a new tab", a new tab opens to the search results. Click the icon in the search bar, far left and click "Open in a new tab" to check or uncheck this option.

    If this answer solved your problem, please click 'Solved It' next to this response when connected to the forum.

  • How can I stop firefox from opening a tab in Tools/Options

    Firefox 38.0.1

    Suddenly instead of an open box now I have an open tab when I go in Tools/Options - how can I recover the box and the aperture stop tab, I'd rather be able to see my tab running below the box in Tools/Options, and now I can't. This makes things very difficult.

    Hi, FredMcD advice is what you need: you can return to the old window Options by: Type Subject: config in the address bar, press ENTER, accept the warning, scroll to browser.preferences.inContent and double-click on it to change the "value" from true to False, taking care to not to change what anyone else. You will then need to restart Firefox.

    If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
