how do I get rid of contextual ads?
This is a small ad that pops out of the bottom left hand corner of our computer. It is in both of our user sites. Help it is so annoying. I have switched off the "allow 3rd party cookies". thank you!

Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
This is a sign of adware and in many cases not Firefox related. Scan with anti-adware programs: Spybot S&D, SuperAntiSpyware. AdAware. It might be installed together with other software, especially if you download it from other sources
