replication of Firefox icon in tool bar
Firefox alias icon keeps replicating itself in the toolbar at the bottom of screen where all of the alias icons are located. Had a session with an Apple rep which did not work. Used a virus protection app that did not remove the aliases. Any ideas?

Make sure you install Firefox properly and that you do not run Firefox from within the DMG (Disk Image) file.
Open the Firefox Disk Image file and drag the Firefox application to the Applications folder on your hard drive. You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the Disk Image, but instead drag it out of the DMG folder.
Thanks for the input, however was not able to install a new version of Firefox. Have had many versions of Firefox over the years. The problem of multiple aliases just appeared and have not been able to prevent it. When on Firefox, every time I switch to mail or any other program and then return to Firefox another Firefox alias icon appears on the bottom of the screen with all the other aliases. It is just an annoyance, however there has to be a simple reason.
Try to uninstall Firefox (i.e. drag the application to the Trash) and reinstall Firefox 87.0.
