Okay so I’ll have about 10~12 tabs open at once & at any point I might click a link to another URL or image & then a popup will come up (even with my popup blocker on). Then, this is what happens when I close the popup and return to the browser:

(click for full)

So all my tabs I was browsing are now inaccesible, very annoying and it’s all downhill from here, notice my toolbars/address bars/menus are all out as well as my status bar completely replaced with the background color of the advertisement.

This never happend on firefox before, any way to fix this?
