I love Mozilla. Since I started using it, I have had almost no annoying pop-up windows to distract me from the joy of webbing (Hey, I'm not a surfer, k?)

I say almost because occasionally I click on the little icon down in the corner to turn them on. The way some websites work, you need to. Infrequently, that is a mistake. Usually it isn't a problem, but my question is this: when I discover I am at a website where I have enabled pop-up windows and decide I want to turn them off, how do I get that little window back to rescind permission?

Yeah, I know there's a help file, but it was compiled by someone who knows what they're talking about, in technical terms I may not recognize. When I search the help files for "pop-up windows", the response is: "No matching items found". Thanks, guys, that was really helpful. :wally

Thanks in advance.

I really ought to invest in a Geek-English, English-Geek dictionary. ;)

Tools - Popup manager - Manage popups. Remove the offending website from the 'allowed' list. :)

No problem - as wonderful as Mozilla is, there's still a fair few examples like this where the interface is thoroughly unintuitive.
