Hi, When connecting to a HTTP:// site, when you enter your username in the username field, Firefox prompts the user with: "This connection is not secure. Logins entered here could be compromised. Learn More".

How can I turn this message off?

We are running Firefox in kiosk mode in the browser (on a Windows 11 PC), and they are logging into an HTTP site using a touch screen, but when they click into the username box, they sometimes miss touch where to enter this username and instead touch the link mentioned in the message. This then takes them to the Mozilla homepage, but because it is running in kiosk mode, they are unable to navigate back, and they are prevented from closing and restarting Firefox. This is why we need to turn the message off.

Does Firefox "remember" any browser data from another Windows user account? I created a guest account for someone today and while I was browsing, I got redirected to a site called fy3 dot fit which had the fake captcha. I did not open the run box and did not paste any commands from it, so is the guest account compromised or do I need to nuke Windows and start again? I read on reddit that it's an infostealer but if Firefox does not remember the other user account's browser data, does that mean nothing would be stolen if I did run it?

I accidentally clicked on a site that was supposed to be a game review site that I found on a Bing search. Now I get pop up ads for fake virus programs whenever I run Firefox.

I ran a scan with Mallware Bytes and Microsoft Defender and both scans came up clean.

I am including a screenshot of the popups.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Dear Firefox Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

My name is Mohammad Kamal Borojerde, and I’m experiencing serious ongoing security issues while using Firefox on my iPhone 13 Pro Max. I am a delivery driver working for Deliveroo, and my device is being targeted through remote hacking methods. I suspect that some malicious actors are using apps I’m not aware of to interfere with my internet, GPS location, and even stop delivery tasks that the company sends to my phone. This has significantly affected both my work and personal life.

Despite installing multiple security applications including McAfee (Reference No: 03203372) and Bitdefender (Reference No: 1010231778), my browsing remains unsecure, and settings keep getting changed or disabled without my consent. I believe attackers are also bypassing or disabling Firefox protections on my phone.

I kindly request Firefox’s security team to investigate this matter seriously. If possible, please help me: 1. Lock down or secure my Firefox browser fully. 2. Review any unusual activity linked to my device/browser. 3. Suggest any specific configuration settings that can protect me against remote access or phishing.

Thank you for your attention and assistance in this urgent matter.

Dear Mozilla Support,

I am experiencing a serious issue with Firefox on my iPhone. The app activates normally, but after a few hours it becomes inactive on its own, and my browsing data is no longer saved. I believe this may be related to a security or phishing issue.

My cybersecurity services (including McAfee and Bitdefender) have notified me of potential phishing attempts, data access risks, and suspicious browser activity. I have reported these issues to my security providers, and they have opened case IDs to investigate further:

- McAfee Case ID: 03203372 - Bitdefender Reference: 1010231778

Due to these ongoing issues, I would like your team to check whether there’s any unauthorized activity linked to my Firefox account or app. I rely on Firefox daily and need this issue resolved as soon as possible for safe browsing.

If possible, I would also like to request that my Firefox browsing profile be locked or protected against unauthorized tampering, auto-deactivation, or interference by malicious software or attackers.

Please let me know what steps I should take, or if you need any further information from me.

Sincerely, Mod's note: PII removed

I log into a secure web account, use user ID and password, go through 3 rd party verification and gain access.

When I logout it takes back to the sites Home page.

If I decide to login again by using the login icon the website immediately logs me backin with No requirement for user ID, Password or 3 rd party verification.

I am trying to determine is Firefox holding this information (User ID, Password and Third party verification code) and auto logging me in or have I not really logged out.

If I completely close Firefox this does not occur.
