I know that the pop-up blocker is on because there are no pop-ups, but sometimes I would like to know when it's blocking in case I want to see it.
What am I missing? Another words, how do I get the pop-up blocker on either my toolbar or status bar
Firefox 09
Noia exteme theme
Thanks, Mark

When a pop-up is blocked, there should be a little blue icon in the bottom left corner of the status bar, a small blue circle with a white letter i in it. You can click on this to change settings to allow the specific site to open pop ups. Or, for finer control, there are two extensions, PopUp Allow and PopUp Count. You can get them on this page (http://www.pikey.me.uk/mozilla/) :)

Edit-actually in 0.9 the icon in the bottom left of the status bar is now a picture of a wndow with a red circle with a line through it. I always have the status bar off.;)

When you double click on the icon that malcore mentioned, it pops up a window with details of popups blocked in that tab and lets you unblock the site if you so choose.
