I got a popup from firefox saying "allow firefox to share with devices on my local networks?" I said yes but now realize Im not sure what i agreed to. What is this specifically? How do i turn this off again? Thanks

The entire web seems to be creepy beyond belief! The stock in trade is my life. I don't want you people spending your time trying to dream up ways to build the cheese that leads me into your maze. I just want to buy a product. I want that product to work for years. It should be reliable not flashy. Why is that so hard these days? When did we become people who would accept junk that needed to constantly be repaired after purchase? Why does an upgrade do exactly the same thing it's predecessor did, but more slowly and requiring more resources? Why can companies build something and then a few years down the road simply stop supporting it? Here in the US car companies were required to support their products for 15 years. As expensive as phones have become and as disruptive as changing operating systems is we need similar legislation in the tech industry. Google needs to be broken up and not be the hub of the internet. No matter where I go in the net my browser always goes to google first. That's just creepy. So please someone just offer a product that doesn't make me a product by it's use.

I received a messaged PURPORTING TO BE a Firefox message that my google cloud was hacked and scammers have passwords and all data. Is this a scam? Peter Neumann [edited email and phone# from community support forum]

I seem to have found a fake Firefox phishing website. The content of the website is in Chinese and it is included in Google search.

The fake websites are cn-firefox.com and www.firefsioix.com, I hope the community members can confirm the website information.

Why do I get these alerts, I have checked my system with Windows security and they give me the all clear no scams found. Here comes another one Trojan virus detected delete with MC Afee Please help

Lately I have been getting junk mail which it reached almost 700 junk messages which some of them offensive to an old lady!!!! There has to be a program that can prevent this from happening!!!! And if so how can I get it o subscribe to it to have the messages scan and only allow those messages that are in my contact list. Thank you so much for your help or suggestions to help get rid of unwanted junk e- mails. Neoma

I ask a person to send me a signed email so that i can send them an encrypted email. How is this process supposed to work in thunderbird? I receive a signed email, what next? Clearly, thunderbird sees the signature but does not add the public key to the contact. This is in contradiction with [page] that states: The standard way of distributing a person's certificate is to send a digitally signed email. If you have received a signed email from your correspondent, click the email to view it. If Thunderbird considers the email's signature and the sender's certificate valid, it will automatically be imported and available when you attempt to encrypt an email to that correspondent using the S/MIME technology. If you don't have a signed email from your correspondent yet, you could ask them to send a digitally signed email to you.

Note that certificates issued by CAs may have a short validity period. Certificates are no longer usable after the validity period has expired. In that case your correspondent will have to obtain a new certificate. Once that happened they will be able to send you a new digitally signed email with a valid certificate.

Organizations that operate an LDAP server may configure their server to store S/MIME certificates. If an LDAP server is configured, Thunderbird may automatically query the LDAP server if it needs to obtain a S/MIME certificate.

To review the list of S/MIME certificates that you already have, you can use Thunderbird's Certificate Manager.

The certificate shows that it is valid, yet, clicking reply gives "key issues" which shows no key available. Similarly, if I sign an email with pgp key and send it, thunderbird sees that it is signed but tells me that i need to obtain public pgp key. So it seems that signatures and encryption are completely unusable.

I have some questions about Thunderbird email. If an email is suspected as being 'junk' do I just delete the email and will future emails be blocked from that sender? I don't actually open the email.

Related to this, I usually 'unsubscribe' from marketing emails, but when I click on the 'unsubscribe' many ask for my email as "verification". Why? They HAVE my email to which they've just sent their junky marketing info. I don't usually respond. So how can I unsubscribe without sending my email address, which they already have. If I just see it is marked as 'junk', and I just delete without opening it, is this as good as "unsubscribing"? Is this request for my email necessary or a phishing scam?

I am using the most current version of Firefox with Windows 10. At this web site: https://tenthousandpots.com/ , I am unable to browse the majority of the site i.e., no products appear when selected. I also tried DuckDuckGo and had the same issue. However, when I downloaded and accessed the site via Google Chrome, the site worked as it should. I reached out to the TenThousandPots site and advised them of this and they said they've had no similar reports. Can anyone advise?

A few days ago my Thunderbird client was downloading messages. I could not see the email that was to be downloaded next. However, a notice appeared, apparently from a hacker that was ending the next email. It was asking me to let it override some information that allowed me to get messages. Then a popup from Thunderbird displayed. It said no decent public site would ask to override anything. So I clicked CANCEL. This happened repeatedly. I kept clicking CANCEL. But no emails downloaded, only the message. Then I got help from the Dell tech support that I paid for when buying the computer. It has always been very effective fixing problems, even if they were not with the computer itself. They could not fix the problem. I can see and answer my emails on Primus webmail. Now. no more emails download in the Thunderbird client after. So apparently some setting has been overridden. I got in touch with Primus, and they told me what to reset the port to, but nothing has been downloaded. I am able to send emails from the Thunderbird client. They told me that the server connection (IMAP) was the same port for send and receive. When I click Get Messages in the Thunderbird client, it says something like Checking server availability. But no new emails download. I have read this from Thunderbird:

"To manually configure an account, you will need to have the following details which can be supplied by your email provider. incoming mail server and port (for example, "pop.example.com" and port 110 or "imap.example.com" and port 143) outgoing mail server and port (for example, "smtp.example.com" and port 25) security setting for the connection with the server (for example, "STARTTLS" or "SSL/TLS" and whether or not to use secure authentication) First, open the Account Settings: In the Thunderbird menu bar, click the ToolsEdit menu and select Account Settings, or click the Application menu button and select OptionsPreferences and Account Settings from the sub-menu." I have tried all this to no avail.

What can I do to get email to download to the Thunderbird client? Can I uninstall the Thunderbird and reinstall without disturbing my Webmail? I would be happy for any help you can give me! Thanks!

I am getting an annoying popup stating that Dan.Hromada@citizensforfreespeech.org is asking for my Google password....this email account is not associated at all with Google or Gmail. It's hosted on the organization's server. Please see the screenshot of the pop-up.

Thank you, Dan Hromada
