streaming sites and pop up windows in background

Post by Khameleon »

Not sure how to word this right, I'm new here but been using Adblock Plus for years.

When streaming on anime and similar sites (like watching Voltron and Power Rangers), a new window will sneakily open in the background. I'll see it on the bottom of the task bar on Windows itself (where your browser icon sits). Some are talky pop-ups, others just dangerous but Avast catches that crap and kills it instantly. How do I tell adblock plus to stop the sneaky pop-up pages/windows?

Side topic: And how the hell do you make deviantart.com 100% usable despite their anti-adblock? I hear buying premium membership doesn't do doodle squat.


EDIT: Okay, wow, y'all. Over 1K views and no replies. I know someone here knows how to deal with these 'pop-unders' as I've heard them called. I just want an answer to this, not to be looked at like a monkey at the zoo.... :(
