I have attempted to sign in to MyHealtheVet.gov 3 or 4 times over as many hours. Every instance has encountered the same message "Secure Connection Failed. This is the Verterans Administration website and find it hard to believe their website is not secure. I'm not a computer geek, far from it, hence utilizing this method of contact. I have been notified by email that I have a secure messaging message on the VA site that I am unable to access/ Thanks in advance,

I'm getting alot of messages several times a day for a week now. Just about all of them are with the Firefox logo but I'm pretty sure it's not Firefox.

Things like phone is corrupt.  Delete certain files.  18 viruses found.  I have some screen shot of them. How can I make this stop?
 It's constant and annoying.

You are fools. With the new desktop version you destroyed all my settings, all the sites I have remembered for years, without asking me if I wanted it because you turn off all my extension. You shameless idiots, you have destroyed all my years of work. And now I have an empty Firefox. Since it is empty, I will never work with you again, because I do not know what you fools can do, and you do not even ask me. I will switch to a new, smarter browser.

I use the email server fastmail.fm inside the Firefox browser on a 2023 Macbook pro. In the main everyday pane (the list of emails) there is a right-hand scroll bar. Frequently that scroll bar is MUCH too long, so that I cannot scroll all the way to the bottom of the list of emails. Both Apple and fastmail.fm are pretty sure they are not responsible. When the scroll bar is too long, I know a work-around, but I would like the problem not to happen.

Fake Browser Management

02/24/2025 @3:22 pm CDT -- Hi; Firefox has recently been telling me [in the Settings screen] that "your browser is managed by your organization." This is on the 'General' page. THAT'S A PROBLEM, esp. on a STANDALONE PC. I didn't change any settings for that to happen.

Since I first saw this message in January, I've reinstalled Win 11 several times; wiped my drive b/c of a security compromise, changed a whole lot of PWs and other things. This is from 48+ yrs. of being a Tech Lady. But I couldn't find a solution to this - to remove this 'organizational' mgmt. of my box. How can this be removed and the browser again realize that I am one independent person?

Thank you.

I run Linux Debian 12 (bookworm), and there seems to be no way to disable Firefox from automatically starting up after system boot. I've searched through settings, read countless articles on the internet, looked at system auto-startup applications, but wasn't able to find anything that worked. I even looked in about:config, but couldn't find anything. Firefox isn't automatically started by my system and there is no parameter that disables it. I also didn't click through any choices about autostart when I first opened Firefox.

I suddenly got a bunch of notices on my computer saying that malicious software has been installed on my computer. They just kept coming and coming. So I turned off notifications in Firefox, and that seemed to fix the problem. But has my computer been taken over? Is it safe to use it? I hope you can help me. Thank you, Ree_B333@yahoo.com

I was wondering if there any option to make my savings more structured, here is an example what i mean: all my downloads are saved in "\Downloads" or i can select it EVERYTIME i download ANYTHING from ANYWHERE, this sucks and i want it to be like this: "\Downloads\web.url\" so it gonna be like: "\Download\youtube.com\" or "\Downloads\gtihub.com\" and i want to have an option to define custom folders for each website, for example for github.com i want set this path: "E:\github-dl\", in my case, E: is my external hard drive. This solution will make user downloading experience much better and our filesystem will say thank to you! I hope you got my idea, i tried to search any extension in your shop, and chrome market but i didn't find any luck, so im asking you directly. I also never saw this kind of feature in any other browser so you could be the ever first one:)
