    Firefox used to be great at blocking pop ups. So, programmers figured out a way around it.

    Then a strict pop up blocker came out and it was great. So, programmers figured out a way around it.

    Now the ads appear within the window so it is not a pop up and can not be blocked.

    Since, I am not a programmer, all I can do is point out WTF is happening. Sorry, I can't do more.
