I would like to know why Mozilla which proclaims to be a company promoting freedom has donated/awarded money to an organisation hell bent on stopping speech they do not agree with.

Think I might find an alternative browser now.

I am going to do a recovery on my wife s pc. Everything will be wiped. I want to save her bookmarks to a flash drive or disc, so I can reload into firefox after its reinstalled.

For some reason, Firefox seems to be connecting to websites, in the background, that I have visited in the past but have not requested. Is there a known reason for this and how do I disable it? The web page doesn't come up but data is being transferred in the background.

Keeping in mind this is different to Amazon, Akamai and other hosting services. These are specific websites that it is doing HTTP requests to in the background for no logical reason.

Thanks in advance.

I've tried to read some of the stories sliding across my screen but some just come up a blank page, but yet on Internet Explorer, they open up just fine. I've got the latest version of Mozilla also.

Doing a right-click on a topic and opening it in a new bar is NOT a problem; a new tab with the new topic opens swiftly.

The problem is when I intend to copy/paste a URL to a new tab: I can not open a new tab to do this - I need to content myself using the existing tab, to paste the URL, OR open a new window to paste the URL.

This has not been the case in my decade(?) of use of Firefox. This is the first time this thing happened.

HELP please. Thank you very much. junReyes Philippines

So i right click and get a picture of whole window (tabs above, whole website). In the top right corner of this picture (picture is inside this menu after right click or in sugestions) I've got my standard menu. When I try to point at sth (in this menu) it starts blinking (picture, menu, picture...). It drives me crazy. I even tried system reinstall and it happens again.

I work on notebook. It's not a beast but not some old junk too.

Any ideas?

P.S english isn't my first language so I tried to make everything as clear as possible. If sth is unclear just let me know.

P.S2 I could use some build in dictionary to avoid misspelling but I can't.

I have uninstalled firefox, shut off my computer, turned it back on, re-installed firefox and tried to right click on the exe program file and run as administrator - nothing works. Now I am having to use Chrome to browse...yuk. All my bookmarks (TONS) are on FIrefox and I like this browser much better than Chrome or Edge.

I downloaded an ebook but turned out it was not what I expected so I deleted it. But after that, I noticed that my search engine and homepage changed. I tried to delete everything I found related to the download I did in the control panel, managed to changed my search engine and homepage back. But whenever I start up Firefox, Awesomeph is homepage though when I click on the homepage icon, Google (which IS my homepage) would start.

I installed a malware software as what's advised on sites dedicated to that problem. Scanned and deleted the 19 threats found, restarted my system but still, Awesomeph is there. What to do?

Good day!

Apologies for the probably dumb question, but I'm finding myself frustrated that I cannot interpret the image that Firefox displays on the "cannot find this site" error page. I get it is something holding a map, but what is it? Cannot figure out what are those on its head, obviously not eyes as quite strangely placed and not identical.

Appreciating if someone shares a clue

thank you!

With a url in the navigation toolbar url box and the active cursor also in the box, pressing <enter> does not activate the url and send the browser to that site. Works in Chrome, IE 64bit, etc. but not FF.

It just randomly started to happen, on certain websites, or part of the sites, the browser freezes for 2-3 minuts, sometimes ending with a script error message, but more often just freeze and keep on going for ever.

I tried to upgrade from 45.0.1 to beta versions, with same outcome. I tried to clean all junk and cookies, even reseted the browser and tried with a new profile, same outcome. The strange thing is that I tried with a clean installed Waterfox x64 and same issues there.

There are no problems with the x86 Firefox.

Locking duplicate thread.
Please continue here: [/questions/921343]

Is there a 64 bit version of Firefox? I downloaded what I thought was a 64 bit version, it looks and acts the same as Firefox but is called Nightly. Is this the 64 bit version of Firefox?
