I have been fighting this for almost five yrs and now today my phone is rooted but not fully which would be good but super user rooted to him. On my behalf which isn't much I've come along way. I cannot prove who the person is even tho I00% know. Without proof you have nothing. I am just computer smart like that. I have to say I have come to love all this from reading and learning all I was aloud to have. If its blocked then how can u learn right. Anyways I will never stop my new found love and hate if software. Haha. I truly have found what I like and maybe have a career in this crazy world of technology. This is the strangest comment I know but to my new found tech peeps. Today is the first day of a brand new life for me and without my husband who just didn't know when to stop. The cards where called I wasn't bluffing. To not being hacked or controlled anymore. To my freedom.

I treid to view a video on C-NET and Firefox blocked it, cut the connection, complaining that their security certificate was bad. And their was no way to override Firefox. So I have not seen the video. That is arrogant bad programming. Do you think that I am so stupid that I cannot decide whether I should see a video when a certificate is bad? Now if it was my bank or Paypal, I would be concerned. But I will take my chances with the Russian hackers when I'm viewing a video (with Ubuntu, no less, which isn't so easy to invade with worms and Trojan horses). So there should be an override where I can decide whether to ignore the certificate error.
How do I prevent a popup after my own mouseclick (websites designed to cause this)

1. Where is the top level "community forum"? I've spent 10 or 15 minutes wandering around a maze of Mozilla support pages without ever getting to a top level "now you can look at postings" page. So... I'm stuck posting to ask where I could've avoided posting.
2. And the actual question at last!! ;) One of my favorite websites for news, thehill.com, places annoying ads to partially obscure the text that you're trying to read. Sometimes (25%?) of the time when you click the "X" box, they then fire off a pop up. Now, this pop a) comes from an ad pretending to be a window and b) is a result of my mouse click. So the fact that I can find the setting menu and turn on the pop up blocker is not helpful, as discussed in the appropriate support page:
Is the pop-up shown after a mouse click or a key press?
Certain events, such as clicking or pressing a key, can spawn pop-ups regardless of if the pop-up blocker is on. This is intentional, so that Firefox doesn't block pop-ups that websites need to work.
Is it a true pop-up window?
Sometimes ads are designed to look like windows, but really aren't. Firefox's pop-up blocker can't stop these ads.
So what we have at last is a second-level question: now that we know the built-in pop up blocker is not the solution, is there one out there? A plug-in perhaps? Or perhaps soneone direct me to the forums and an appropriate discussion of (presumably NOT the popup blocker) the mechanism by which this is solved?
Thanks for any courteous replies in advance, Craig
PS: Amusing contradiction here... how am I going to find the answers... hmmm....

I have no idea what state is on file as being my state of residence (I move a lot for a civilian), but I've lived at this address for the last three or four years and never had any issue with logging in to my firefox account before. I have plenty of trouble with my location WITHIN the state (Oklahoma), because apparently the only cities that exist in the state are OKC and Tulsa /eyeroll, but I've never had an issue with the state itself being misidentified. I could understand if a VPN was causing the issue, but I'm not using a VPN (I know, I probably should, but imagine the login issue THEN! lol). Thanks in advance for any help.

I have applied the suggested fix for stopping the master password from popping up every time I go to a new site but it keeps happening. I open firefox with google search. I start to enter a search but the master password box pops up and I find I am typing my search query in the M P box. If I cancel it it just pops up again. This is before I even get to any site. When there it will come up again when following a link in that site and so on. This is very annoying and I am considering dumping firefox because of it. Please don't tell me to do the M password replacement procedure IT DOES NOT WORK. I have also tried editing the registry but that failed also. Robert.

"Forgot Password?" service does not work properly. Here is what is happening: I enter my email to get a Reset Password Link in my e-mail and Firefox Accounts sends me an email which goes to Spam folder. I open the e-mail and what I see is some kind of source code containing:

Content-Transfer-Encoding: basenumbers Content-Type: encoding type info
, which is not typically normal and should not be exposed in that form as it exposes sensitive information and can be considered a security breach.
I have replaced: the original mix of letters and numbers and IP address with the "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx", wherever only numbers are shown with "numbers", original city/town name with "name of city" so only the Firefox support team will know the details and what exactly is the problem. I can only guess whether this is a system update, encryption issue, cloud or server problem or COVID-19 mutated and can now be transferred to computers as well. Customers should not receive source code in their Firefox Account - Password Reset e-mail! Firefox support team, please fix this!

Yes, just installed Smart Defrag Free from Advanced System Care (great product) AND it changed 2 important things;
1) changed default search engine to BNG (microsoft, you are NOT in the search engine biz, so go home) 2) switched off - save & open tabs from previous session - VERY bad as I have my fav 25 tab set for researching info
Why, Why, Why cannot FF LOCK DOWN my options settings ???????????????????
Clear specified cache on exit
Dear all,
Do Firefox have an option or an add-on which can delete specified site cache on exit.
Thanks

I start firefox without any open tab, all extensions deactivated.
I can see that it automatically connects to compute.amazonaws.com and cloudfront.net. This is a gross privacy leak !!! Isn't Firefox supposed to be on top of privacy issues ? Is it expected ? Can it be removed ?
I know mozilla's website relies on amazon services (and this is a deep flaw in mozilla's privacy commitment), but there is no reason for Firefox to use it.

SSL client certificates do not work on Firefox 74.0 64-bit (Windows 10) and smartcards as expected. The smartcard gets accessed via PKCS #11 library.
When the client certificate is placed into the software security module, Firefox can send it to the requesting web server and it works as expected.
Once the very same certificate was successfully imported into a smartcard and removed from the software security module, authentication fails in Firefox with "SEC_ERROR_LIBRARY_FAILURE". The nginx web server reports: SSL_do_handshake() failed (SSL: error:14094438:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:tlsv1 alert internal error:SSL alert number 80) while SSL handshaking, client: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, server: 0.0.0.0:443
When using Chrome, the same client certificate from the same smartcard gets used and successfully connects to the web server.
Is there a known issue for this? How can this problem be narrowed down? Is there some kind of debug log file to get further information?

Firefox-Version: 74.0 (64-Bit) Operating system: Xubuntu 18.04
I want to participate in meetings with Teamviewer or in https://meet.jit.si. I want to enable my mike in the browser for that purpose.
I read the hint
https://support.mozilla.org/en…ng-microphone-permissions
but that does not work for me: After entering the URL into the dialogue,e.g.. https://meet.jit.si I am supposed to press ENTER. But then nothing happens!
I expect the entered URL to be added to the list below after pressing ENTER (this list was empty before in my case).
When I want to participate in such a meeting, I get a question whether I would allow the microphone to be used. Even if I allow it, meet.jit.si tells me that it could not use the microphone for an unspecified reason.
In the browser when trying to use such a connection, to the left of the URL there is a closed lock symbol and a red microphone symbol.
I have checked if the microphone works: I can record something with it using Audacity and if I activate the Pulseaudio-volume control I see a level indicator which reacts on sound heard by my microphone.
What must I do to enable the microphone for TeamViewer or other net meetings?
