How can i permanently disable Firefox warning "This file may harm your computer"?
It's a simple question. Nothing detailed about it. I wish to permanently disable firefox's warnings "This file may harm your computer" & "This site may not be secure".
I'm using Firefox Quantum 57.0.4 (64-bit) in Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit).
Thanks in advance, Teo Test.

This is part of the phishing and malware protection feature. This article has more information on the relevant settings: How does built-in Phishing and Malware Protection work?

What is the site?
It doesn't matter, there are various sites i'm getting this 'warnings'. Plus, it's not only the sites, i'm getting this for some files i'm downloading too. It's really annoying to have to confirm each and every single time that i don't care about the 'warnings'. Do you have something in mind? A solution?

I don't think there is a warning with that title. If it's not the phishing site warning that you can just click right through, did you mean one of these:
