Default gmail & popup blocker

All of a sudden today I get an error message when I try to print a Gmail
email via Firefox on XP. Says

"Grrr! A popup blocker may be preventing the application from opening the
page. If you have a popup blocker, try disabling it to open the window."

I don't recall using a popup blocker. I have no idea what happened. I
didn't purposely change anything. What can I do about this to return to
printing emails?

TIA


It's interesting, that the same message shows in a Safari users session.

The root cause there, was some sort of PUP or adware interfering
in browser operation. The idea is to disable extensions
temporarily and retest.

The concept would be, maybe the PUP blocks popups to try to get
you to disable the real popup blocker setting.
