But on the website linked in the URL field above: http://politique-blog.over-blog.fr/article-25959836.html

The popup works for me. So the option to block popups doesn't seem to cause the problem (at least for me).

@PatJol: Have you tried to open Firefox in Safe Mode (over the Windows Start menu)?

Comment 6

[PatJol]

I have tried in safe mode, it works correctly.
And now it is OK in normal mode.

Comment 7

[PatJol]

The bug reappears.
I don't want to stay in the safe mode !

If this works in Safe mode, it is a problem with an extension you have installed. You can disable them one by one (or create a new profile and install one by one, and then contact the developer of the extension. We can not fix their problems for them.
