I keep getting security test everytime i search anything on firefox. Firefox says that they're getting suspicious signals from my server and i have to give a security test containing 6-7 image recognizing tests. Sometimes i have to sit for 5 minutes straight for this and sometime i get a failure status that i can't search and i should try later. This thing is happening for almost a year and i am really tired of it. If the problem doesn't go i have to uninstall firefox. Please help.

Hi, are you searching in Private Browsing ? If so you will continue to always get repeated CAPTCHA https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAPTCHA security requests as you are not allowing the cookies to be dropped that is needed by Google I would think as this has happened to me also while in Private Browsing.

If you are using a regular Firefox browser window this again will happen if not enough cookies are allowed through.

Please give yourself a scan just to make sure you have no issues that it is picking up that could also cause the issue : Please use more than 1 scanner as each uses diff tech :

Save your Report and google each before deleting anything as do not want to delete something you need, If need help :

Post in only 1 forum, then wait.

Please uninstall your Flash 20.0 r0 as it is a security risk of magnitudes and use this to do so please as it is so old :
