I installed Firefox on a PC back home during break and turned off the notifications that Firefox gives you when it blocks a popup window (you know, the one-line dropdown that states "Firefox has prevented a popup from opening.." and then allows you to click for options). I need to turn that back on but don't know how, so anyone want to let me in on how it's done? :D

yea, I googled, and searched the forums using many queries but wasn't able to find exactly what i was looking for.

Type about:config into the address bar; press Enter.
In the filter, type in popup

First option there is browser.popups.showPopupBlocker; set that to True, and restart the browser. Hopefully that does the trick.

Thanks a bunch. The option you have to set to true is privacy.popups.showBrowserMessage, but that helped me find it.
