blockable items list continous to show up

[livedota]

Hello, as i say in the title the blockable items list continous to show up when i closed it, i have already tried to reset firefox and disable all addons and plugin but i still have the same issue. I run firefox 50.0 on win 10 AU 64bit and version of ABP is 2.8.2.
Anyone know why this happen ?
Thanks for reply

open the browser console (press ctrl-shift-J) and try to close the blockable items list (clicking 'x' or from the menu or pressing ctrl-shift-V)
see what errors you get in the console

Same thing here. It's actually pretty bad. Right on this very forum page as I open browser console, the blockable items list shows up. I click to close it and it reappears immediately. I click again -- it stays closed. If I switch focus to browser console, or anywhere else for that matter, it opens again. Oh, and nothing is being reported in the console.

And -- if that weren't enough, if I detach the blockable items list, its window starts showing up and closing of its own accord, incessantly. This is pretty terrible.

By the way, in my case the behaviour first happened yesterday, but, for some reason ceased after I restarted Firefox. Now it doesn't seem to go away no matter what I do.

Would be very much obliged if anyone were to have any thoughts on this. Thanks!

what if you disable all other addons ? Does stil happen ?

Hey, mapx!

Uhm... What do you know. I've just spent some twenty minutes disabling the good three dozen add-ons, and re-enabling them more or less one by one... So now I'm finished, all add-ons re-enabled, but the so-and-so blockable items list doesn't pop-up either. Go figure. I guess, I will report back if it decides to pay a visit again. Thank you for your time %)

Thanks for reply, in the console do not appear any error and i have forgot to say that when i click detach the blockable items window start to close and open really fast so i forced to anchor to browser and sometime the window even close automatically, i really do not know what to do, please help

@ livedota, like I asked above: did you try disabling all other addons / close / reopen firefox, see if using only ABP you get the same behaviour ?

[livedota]

I didn't answer because i have already say it in the topic, anyway yes i have already tried

@livedota maybe a corrupted profile, please see if u have the same issue using firefox portable + ABP.

[livedota]

Hey, guys!

So mine is back. But for me there appears to exist a reliably working workaround.

So the pattern, as far as could establish it, is as follows. Whenever I close a Firefox session with ABP turned on, the next time I start Firefox the blockable items list is there, always. From here there are two possibilities, and what triggers one or the other behaviour is a mystery to me. In roughly half the cases simply turning ABP off and then immediately on works and makes the list go away until the next time I restart Firefox. In the other half, though, the list would reappear after re-enabling ABP within one given session, -- then I would have to turn ABP off, restart, turn it on, and, again, the list won't appear until restart.

So, for now, I seem to be able to cope with it. But it seems to really be an issue.
