I’m disgusted with Firefox. I upgraded one of my PCs and now Firefox is allowing advertisers to pop-up but it is more like a new Firefox is starting and it is going to some advertiser’s website. Really sucks.

It sounds completely atypical. Check your settings (Tools, Options, Content, "block popup windows"). Try add-ons "Adblock Plus" and "NoScript" also.
