User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040626 Firefox/0.9.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040626 Firefox/0.9.1

This happens after using mozilla firefox for a few hours. Basically when you go
to a site which uses pop-up windows, even though it is in your allowed sites
list ad block still blocks it.

When you try and unblock the site it doesn't let you. You shut down firefox and
open it back up to use a site with pop-ups again.

The problem will come back again after a few hours.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Surf the web for a few hours on sites with pop-up windows that are in your
allowed list.
2. Wait for the problem to occur.
Actual Results:  
can't open pop-up windows till I restart firefox.

Expected Results:  
Let the pop-up windows be opened

Same here. The thing is, restarting Firefox doesn't help one bit! This is really
annoying!! Switching back to IE until this is fixed.
