Question How do you 100% completely disable the popup blocker in Firefox?

My Firefox at work just randomly decided to start blocking popups, regardless of the fact that it's disabled in settings and that the site is in the exception list. I also disabled ublock. But it's still blocking popups. This broke a bunch of stuff since everything at work seems to use popups or opening new windows etc.

The version is 41.0.2. If I upgrade then it breaks a lot of stuff so I need to keep it at that version. My workplace has lot of shitty web apps that are very browser/java version specific.

I use 2 blockers with Firefox, once in while they work quite well. Total AdBlock and AdBlocker Ultimate.
Some sites tell me I'm using one, even if they are disabled.

I'm trying to actually disable it, because even though it's disabled in the settings, it's still blocking stuff and I don't want it to. I get the yellow bar on top saying it blocked a popup, but the issue is at that point it's too late even if I click the option to show it, it won't work. These web apps are really finicky.

Tried all that, still keeps blocking them no matter what. It's messed up, since it only started doing that yesterday, and it was never an issue before and nothing changed. I just wish my company would stop using super crappy web apps that only work in very specific browsers. It's a mess having to use so many different browsers and java versions etc.

So rebooting seemed to be the answer. It fixed it.

On similar note, is there a way to disable the SSL cert warnings, completely for 10.x.x.x IPs? I don't know WTF my company does but even when I accept a cert the next time I need to go through the whole spiel again. I don't know if they keep issuing new ones every couple days or what. Everything is self signed and triggers warnings so it's quite annoying. Is there a way to just automatically accept them all without having to go through the whole spiel?
