Firefox and those comsumer survey popups

Runing windows 7 pro 64 bit, I have firefox ver 22, I have block popups checked.
I am getting these Comsumer Survey Group popups,which opens in a new browser page (not a Tab) I have Microsoft Security ess, I ran Malwarebytes and superantispyware and was clean on their checks.
I reformatted my drive, reinstall everything. I installed Firefox ver 22 and I still get the darn popups.
My firefox Extenions are Adblock plus,Download helper,Downthemall, Freecoder 7,, toolbar buttons these were installed before the survey
popups started,,the newest one I have is Flash video downloaded 3.9.3
Are These popups a new Norm for firefox?
Any ideas on how to stop these popups
Thanks for reading and any help you may offer

 

Do these popups occur on every site or just a certain one?

 

Hi John32073, In FF Version 22 > Tools > Options > Content > is Block Pop ups Checked?
Have you listed the problem one/s in Exceptions? Neil.

 

Yes Block popups is checked, They will occur on ebay,or any site that sells, or when closing the browser one will popup It is like a timer after so much time goes by one will popup ever so often even in yahoo email..
I have wipped my hard drive did a image of a fresh setup of win 7 with just a basic setup, NO Browsers, and the download the Chome Oper and Firefox, Then The first thing I get is a survey within 25 minutes
This pesty thing is crazy I think it is build in to firefox all version of firefox are doing it

 

Also I run ccleaner daily

 

Wow, that is really odd, especially because it occurs after a fresh install...

See at this stage I would reccomended seeing Broni, but after a fresh install...

I think you should wait and see if anyone else can shed any light on this strange issue...

 

Just an after-thought...

It sounds like malware... But as said above if it's after a fresh install aswell, then that's very unlikely...

Do you have any toolbars installed? It may also be that you have a program installed, which is causing the popups. It would be helpful if you could post a complete list of ALL the programs you have installed since the fresh install.

I can assure you, AFAIK firefox is certainly not including this cr@p in their install packages...

My thoughts to Doc. Neil.

 

Malwarebytes and Superantispyware Are finding nothin, and after a clean install from image back up made when a fresh install was done and only time it was hooked to internet was to activate windows. with no web browser installed but IE since in was installed with the OS. The second page after starting FF was a survey. After my wiping and restore I only get this thru FF I tryed Ver 22,& 20,& 19 Only with FF Chrome I don't get them, With Palemoon I dont get them
Now I use Palemoon as my main Browser

 

You may need more than just those two tools to find the infection. (Neither of those can find rootkits for example).
