How Do I Make Google Chrome Allow Pop-ups From A Website Again

Why do I keep getting pop-ups in Chrome and Firefox despite having Adblock Plus?

I'm going to have to break down the answer to this question into two pieces: first how pop-ups are likely occurring and second armed with that knowledge what you could do.First, browser's like Chrome attempt to naturally block pop-ups that aren't initiated by a user action. See [1] for an interesting analysis and solution to this problem if you are so inclined.  So I think we can break down pop-ups into two cases.Case a) This is a popup that was clearly not intended by the website's owner. In this case I agree with Don Marti, you may have some malware. Google "malware scanner" for some options here.Case b) This popup was in fact intended by the website's owner. You see even if you don't think it's a good experience, website owners don't always make the best decisions here. Especially if you are on a website of quasi legal status, you wouldn't do that would you?  Of course even mainstream websites make stupid calls when it comes to balancing user experience versus revenue. Either way Google or Firefox may well view this popup as 'legitimate'.Let's assume case b), now enter Adblock. Since you are a user you've probably long enjoyed a 'crap' free internet experience. So any deviation, even on grey websites, may feel very jarring.  It's possible that this particular pop-up is being delivered by an advertiser who has paid Adblock off to be a member of the Acceptable Ads - Adblock Plus program.  However, I don't think this is pretty likely. Those guys have a lot a to lose and have little incentive to anger users like yourself. So most likely this is an advertiser who is being both being enabled by the website and isn't in Adblock's filter list. (Adblock works by a applying a list of scripts and URLs that it's plugin looks for and blocks. If a bad actor isn't on the list they can get through.)If the above sounds like you, then what can you do about all of this? Well one option is to review what filters you've setup and if you think you are configured correctly then report a new advertisers to the filter owner. See this for more: Getting Started - Adblock PlusIf you are technically savvy you can inspect the page source of the site in question and see if a technique, similar to [1], is being employed and add your own manual filter to shut them down.If you think you fall outside of the above scenarios, I'd love to hear more about it![1]http://theandystratton.com/2012/...

How can I stop chrome from auto-opening unwanted ad windows?

There are dozens of exploits that’ll cause chrome to open new windows and tabs with no user interaction whatsoever. All these folks telling you you have malware clearly haven’t spend any time downloading illegal porn, videos or software.First, you need something to block malware servers. uBlock Origin is the best thing going as of this writing. Suppliment that with “privacy badger” and you’ll have a fairly tight solution, but you’ll still get a lot of popunder windows and new tabs.Next, get a second monitor, and place it BELOW your browsing monitor. Most of these exploits work by placing a new 0px. x 0px. window offscreen in the browser, which you can’t see to close. A quick hand will allow you to see these windows before they can load a payload and start annoying you.Finally, when you DO get one of the 100’s of “YOUR COMPUTER IS INFECTED” or “THE FBI HAS BEEN ALERTED TO YOUR ACTIVITY” or whatever threat/scam/etc windows, mouse over the chrome icon in your title bar, and close the window using the red X there, not in the browser window.The only useful plugin i’ve found for this is “Popup blocker (strict)” which is ungodly annoying, but it will stop pretty much anything from opening, including stuff you never thought of as being popups.

I am not able to do credit/debit card transactions on my Chrome browser on my laptop because the page where OTP is supposed to be entered does not load. What is some help with the settings of my browser?

I don’t think the failure of payment is caused by the incorrect settings of the chrome browser. What I would suggest you to do, is to delete the user in the chrome browser, that means a complete restart and re-calibration of your chrome browser and as well as updating your chrome browser since the google chrome browser updates very frequently. Finally, restart your laptop to see when you make the payment again, it passes or not. You may also explain to me which specific type of payment on which website are you making. Does it require (the payment system or the website or the financial institution) requires plugins or web chrome add-ons, etc.

The problem situation varies, if the browser opens with some other search engine when you start with any browser, First try with..Clean your browser cache etc..Remove all the unknown chrome extensions.Change the default search engine…Activate Adblock and check whether POP window and 3rd party are blockedClear the browserIf it doesn’t work then your computer contains browser hijacker where you would have download and installed the suspicious and malicious software form unprotected website where neither your anti-virus nor windows defender cannot block that.you cannot find that software in Add Programs and u can’t delete in MY ComputerBut it can be removed by full version antivirus with malware remover where u have to scan 2 to 3 times fully..But make sure that the antivirus you are searching in net to remove it will give fake malware remover which will give strength to hijacker becoz the browser and the search will be totally controlled by this.So use reputed antivirus like kaspersky, Avira, Norton, K7, NPAV etc…
