I got Adblock from http://www.getadblock.com
Hint: I found I had to save the file, then use the "install add-on from file" option in the add-ons manager, because I couldn't figure out how to work the little popup window that opened when I tried to download the add-on.

Hi Brad. I searched Fire Fox for adblock but did not find one just called adblock. Lots of pluses and youtube and forks. What about this one?AdBlock Litehttps://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-lite-firefox/?src=apiBob On 8/31/2015 7:40 PM, Brad Martin via Jfw wrote:Tom and Gennie,Control L is working fine for me with Firefox 40.0.3. I have had a couple of occasions where it didn't work for some reason, but they're few and far between. To Gennie's point about Firefox crashing, I discovered that the ads were most of the problem. I installed the Adblock add-on for Firefox, and most of my crashes went away. Occasionally a video will cause Firefox to crash even still, but it's way better than it was without Adblock. (Not to be confused with Adblock+ which I have not tried.)Tom, I often enter a URL (or paste one) into the Windows Run box. So press Windows key and the letter r, then type or paste in the URL. If Firefox is not your default browser, the process is a little different. Press Windows key and the letter r, then typefirefox url for instance firefox www.google.com There's your work around if you need it.

Typically, with Firefox, I use the control L command, after which I canpaste a web site address into the edit box, and hit enter. I'm then able toopen The web site from that point. However, I'm finding that the control L command no longer works with Firefox 40. Has anyone noticed this change, and are there good work-arounds? I have gotten to the point where I actually prefer Firefox to InternetExplorer for accessing and navigating web sites, so this apparent change inFirefox behavior is somewhat disconcerting. I'm using Jaws 16 and Windows 7 here. Thank you. Dr. Tom Behler from Michigan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
