I have been running KIS 19.0.0.1088(b) with Firefox 61.0.2 64-bit and everything has been working well.

I updated to Firefox 62.0 64-bit today, 11th September, and the Safe Money function in KIS doesn't work.

So I re-installed Firefox 61.0.2 and it works correctly so there must be an issue with Firefox 62.0 which causes KIS Safe Money function to fail so it would appear that tech support for Firefox need to look into this.

I saw a thread from August 26th where a user who couldn't get KIS Safe Money to work with Firefox 61 was told it didn't support Firefox 60 or later:

I guess your experience is proof that it can work with Firefox 61. ???

It seems that Kaspersky might need to make tweaks to the "Kaspersky Protection" add-on when Firefox updates. If you check the Add-ons page, is the extension enabled? This article is old; it shows the pre-Firefox 57 interface: https://support.kaspersky.com/12782. Currently, you can open that using either:

  • Ctrl+Shift+a (Mac: Command+Shift+a)
  • "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
  • type or paste about:addons in the address bar and press Enter/Return

In the left column of the Add-ons page, click Extensions.

Then scan down the right side and look for Kaspersky Protection and see whether it is or can be enabled.

Still the same problem, so it is a Firefox 62.0 issue.

Thanks for replying....yes, the extension is enabled.

I will just keep running 61.0.2 until the issue is fixed.
