Have uninstalled , reinstalled Firefox. scanned with Malwarebytes, Windows Defender and can't get rid of this riskware. It's buried in the Firefox.exe program.

Hi rebeldawg365, ocsp.starfieldtech.com sounds like part of a URL for checking whether a certificate has been revoked, using the OCSP protocol.

You're saying on your system this string is present in the firefox.exe file on disk (which seems strange), or Firefox sends a request to that address while it is running?

Which software is detecting it?
