I'd never seen a Windows Security prompt when attempting to view saved passwords before, so I was confused when I saw it for the first time recently. I have a primary password set within Firefox, and I never enabled "Require device sign in to manage passwords" in settings. I also cannot disable this setting without entering my Windows password.

I was alarmed that this may be a malware symptom, as I'd recently connected to a new public wifi network. Is it a known issue for this setting to become enabled by itself? At the time of this issue, I was running 150.0.3. I have since updated to 152.

How can I suppress a recurring pop-up in Firefox that claims my computer is infected with a virus and it instructs me to download McAfee Antivirus to clear it out. I've done multiple scans with my Norton Antivirus which showed I had no viruses. The fake pop-ups appear to be coming from Firefox.

I have been using Firefox for 20 years. My company Ameriprise Financial has uninstalled it and when I try to reinstall, they immediately uninstall it. They tell me there are security vulnerabilities with Firefox. WTH Firefox?

They want me to us Google Chrome now instead.

There is a program called TENS (Attached image) that is used by the Dept. of War that was developed by USAF. I would love to have a Firefox version that does the same thing on a bootable flash drive. I would use this only for banking, medical, IRS, SSA, etc. I am sure others would like it for different reasons, so include a statement to users that IP only log file is generated and state that this is for security/quality control/legal accountability of Firefox purposes and that this data is saved on your server.

The goal is to avoid Google. Copilot advise me to under Security, to uncheck the box "Block dangerous and deceptive content". Is that advisable - should I comply?

My cat jumped on my keyboad and Firefox detected 'unusual activity' She probably hit a combination of keys which lead to said activity. Instantly, I had to verify whether I was a human. I did, but really, it was my cat. Neither my cat, nor myself have bad intentions. I just thought Firefox security should know that these things might happen.

I hope that my cat's activity didn't compromise my account. Maybe 'unusual activity' should be less strict, though I do understand that Firefox must be vigilant. Maybe it would be a good idea to let users describe what happened, before sending Captcha?

I am using the Firefox browser. Lately it has been redirecting me to a malicious website: mercu-wgp.com/zclkvisitor. What can I do to prevent this? I have FF 150.0.3 64 bit on a W'11 computer.

I'm using a HTML file as a hypertext that catalogues a hard drive or folder. I want the file names to be clickable--to open the file, but but the file:/// href is blocked. What is the work around. All of this is local

ie every time I closed it it would reopen- 14 times when I am trying to read my emails yesterday and 6 today. but I thought it was my internet security causing the problem. I kept getting notification that a certain site was attempting to use my system,. The worst thing was it kept flashing on my screen and wouldn't go away, There was no clue who öwned it, my security or Mozilla's. It was finally resolved by contacting my computer guy, but we never identified the source. the site that was being blocked started with pssst.........com, or something similar but it was driving me mad trying to get it off the screen. If this happens again, how do I get rid or stop the continual notifications? Of course I have nothing to show you as I have since deleted it, sorry. as I was just relieved to see it gone.

Thank you Angela Johnson

Hi, I am getting a message about Java being blocked it may be being blocked and it is happening often. I need to be able to turn off what is doing this. So I can see what is on the sites I am trying to use. Thanks Dave
