My problem is the auto maximize of the browser.i don't know how to disable it. I use a site that automatically opens popups every 30 sec.it wasn't auto maximize before and i dont know what happened to it.so there must be a reason for it.

I found that after Firefox v29, a LOT of my settings and
add-ons were changed / reset. Try this; Start Firefox in Safe Mode
While you are in safe mode;
Firefox Options > Advanced > General.
Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.
Then check ALL of your settings. Browser and add-ons. Then restart.

Resetting Firefox puts everything back to its factory settings and removes all of your add-ons. Is that what you did? I had said to check your settings.
