I use Firefox for many years, no problems. But recently I got fake websites with www.maccabi4u.co.il and PayPal. What is wrong? I downloaded Chrome and it does not happen.

How did you get that? Sites don't just popup randomly on the Browser unless the user was at a site with malware on it.

Can you be more precise? What do you mean by "fake websites"? What happened when you went to the websites you mention (note that this site translates a partial url into one which is not https)?
