Just to clarify, FF does not get rid of spyware. It is not an anti-spyware program.

wow sounds like maybe this is hotmails fault and you should send them and email and try to request a free premium account for this discover :P but really you should go report this to hotmail maybe they screwed up somehow, like they always do

Yes, only Hotmail. I think it only happens when I go back a page.
I'll do some tests and post them here.

Problem is my computer goes completely weird. Can't click on anything, can't close them.. weird..

Yes, it does support Hotmail, because, I use Hotmail from IncrediMail and it works perfectly ;)
It doesnt use POP3 for hotmail, but it connects to the site where the emails are shown, or something like that...
Connection failed when I try to go there. Probely need to add to the hosts file because I always ahve problems, if anyone could give me the IP address of incredimail.com ?

RE: Hotmail opens 50 pop-ups

ive noticed firefox is getting more pops up recently, i've done the edit to try and block them as well.

back to the thread starter...

I'd suggest as stated a spyware scan. perhaps empty your temporary internet folder too via c drive, right click, disk clean up etc

you never know that might fix it
