My Canon printer disconnected from my computer after Firefox offered me CutePDF writer printing which I did not take.

The drop down menu for printers under settings no longer shows my Canon, only this Cute one.

Not Cute...Need to be able to print.

Connection to Zoom on this same desktop is not working right. The meeting flashes on and off. Ideas?

Thanks, Karen

I wanted to find information on my question, so I visited a website, and some file named CcRNEMIH.htm was downloaded (with a Firefox icon). I deleted it, scanned my computer, and found nothing. Then I visited the website again, and nothing else was downloaded. Then I checked my downloads folder and saw that under the file name, there was a resource called moz-safe-about. What could it have been?

When I first started using Firefox I had imported my passwords from Chrome. In the Passwords menu it would show which onces were vulnerable (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-password-manager-alerts-breached-websites).

However, on any device where my passwords have been synced via my Mozilla account it does not show these alerts?

Is this a known error and is there a potential fix? I thought this was a good security feature.
