Ridiuculous Firefox Problem
I have always had pop-ups disabled. Whenever I wanted one to come up, I'd go to the yellow bar that appeared and told it to open the pop-up.
The yellow bar is no longer there! I've tried disabling/enabling pop-ups to no avail. Anyone? |

I'd try uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling. Make a backup of your profile first though!
Did any of your add ons/extensions break when you updated? They may be disabled, which *could* maybe sorta affect your popup prompts. Let us know a good site to test the pop ups. I can't think of any good ones that I go to on any regular basis, so I can't really test with my firefox.

Mike,
Browse to location "about:config" Look for browser.popups.showpopupblocker Make sure its value is set to true.

cyrnel and Vlad are both correct.
Initially, pop-ups get that yellow bar. There's something that you can press on that bar that disables the bar, and instead you get the icon Vlad describes.
