On my main Firefox page when I first open it, bottom left corner shows3 horizontal lines which is normal. On top of the lines is a blue triangle with an exclamation point. I clicked it expecting to find the reason for the triangle, but nothing shows a reason. I researched it further, but no one could explain it.

On your homepage there are 24 news articles... is it asking too much to have 12 of them from non-far-left news agencies instead of the 20 far-left and 4 neutral? Or maybe you don't care about the 50+ percent of right leaning customers. Need a Bud-Light lesson?

While working in Chrome I get desktop notifications from web-based chat applications in my Firefox browser. I would click on the notifications and would be instantly redirected to the Firefox webpage with the new chat. Now when I click on it the Firefox icon in the taskbar just blinks and I have to click on it to open the Firefox window. This just started about 2 weeks ago; I suspect that a Windows update from then may be the culprit. I'm running the latest version of Windows 11 on a HP ProBook 445 G8 Notebook PC.

My browser (on a second device) is sending me messages that a Trojan has been discovered - will not stop so I uninstalled it. If I download a new browser will the same messages continue? Has this breached the whole of my Mozilla Firefox account?

I am not sure how the architecture works and to clear the other device.
