What happened to Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon?
I can't find Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon anywhere, and I had previously found this to be very helpful. I had to reset firefox because any videos I played would freeze the visual yet continue to play audio if I left that tab to do other things while it played in the background. I cleared my cache, cookies, and network cache, but these things didn't help, I figured it must be in my addon settings so I rolled everything back to square one and am trying to reinstall each item one at a time to figure out what's wrong. I miss this addon, and want it back! Was there some reason it was pulled, is it coming back, or is it now incorporated into abp?

That addon was never related to ABP and now it seems was dismissed.
However, ABP can block the popups with specific rules.
Which is the site / page where you get popups ?

It mostly pertains to streaming media sites like icefilms and watchseries.to, which are both popup heavy sites. I've been trying to learn more about using my 'blockable items' feature since easylist doesn't handle a lot of these issues. I admit that there is still a lot for me to learn. In the last year I've become slightly more savvy, but do not know how to alter abp to eliminate all popups. Most of the time I look for items that are third party and block those, but sometimes apb won't block those items, they are unchanged, and they often contain malware popups that have to be closed in the task manager.
Would you happen to know if there's a place I could learn more about what I'm doing? I'm not a coder, I don't understand a lot of this, I just want this crap to stop and am totally willing to learn.

Yup, that worked, thank you. Thank you so much.
Would you happen to know if there's a resource where I can learn more about this?

Re: What happened to Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon?
is there a way I can share what I've blocked so that it can be put on the easylist? I'm super sorry if I'm an idiot, I'm just trying to understand how to be a better part of this community and using this tool

You could also search for your sites directly on easylist forum:
https://forums.lanik.us/index.php
Or, if you cannot find your specific pages you can report your issues directly there.
Not all the filters are inserted in easylist.
For example if you search there for vidto ==> https://forums.lanik.us/viewtopic.php?f ... ilit=vidto
For watchseries ==> https://forums.lanik.us/viewtopic.php?f ... es#p104789
and so on. Sure, if you post here, someone will help you.
