Pop-up Controller is a very useful Firefox add-on to open pop ups in a new tab, instead of new window. Many a times we all visit websites that open multiple pop ups one after another in new windows of the browser. Even clicking on a particular link or webpage of a website open with multiple pop ups. In that case, this simple yet powerful add-on comes in use. It will automatically open each and every pop up in a new tab. Thus, you don’t have to get frustrated anymore with pop-ups.
Apart from opening pop-ups in a new tab, you can even block all the pop-up for any website. Just a single click is needed and all pop-ups for any website will be blocked immediately.
