PG&E, a Norther CA utility, has redone their user site, but will not allow FireFox to be used as a browser. I thought you should be made aware of this.

I want you to be aware a Northern Calif. Utility, PGE, has rebuilt their website so FireFox cannot be used. I do not know if this is legal. I can no longer pay my bill using their website, and by phone, I am charged a fee. I don't know if this is legal, but you should not want this happening to the only safe browser.

Local file access blocked on Ubuntu 24.04.1 LDS Firefox snap version

I just wasted 3 hours trying to figure out why my ComfyUI (local AI image generator) stopped working with Firefox. There were no error messages from ComfyUI, it just failed to load workflow files.

It turns out that it's because Firefox is installed as a snap package and wherever the snap configuration for Firefox lives thinks it knows better than I do what files and directories on my system I can access in Firefox.

I also had this problem with trying to open PDFs in my home directory where I kept getting access denied errors. I tried to solve the problems with the snap version and found several proposed solutions by google search which people claimed worked but did not.

I finally found a web page that described how to uninstall the snap package and install an alternate non-snap version of Firefox, and now everything works like I expect it to.

How do I make sure this snap version does not ever come back?

Hi there! It started yesterday. I keep getting warning messages from Bitdefender that a connection Firefox was trying to establish was blocked. I will include a screenshot of the warning. I searched the link included in the warning and it comes up as a Firefox related link. I had six or seven of these warnings within the last 3 hours of using the computer and am concerned and irritated. Firefox is updated automatically on this computer and I think the last major change would have been the "cookie jar" thing(?). Obviously, the warning only says that the a certificate has expired. Thank you in advance for your help. Yours sincerely,R.

Firefox 131.0(aarch64) OSX 15.0.1

1st Issue: The 'Clear Cache' doesn't seem to completely clear the cache. Eg: I'm logged into gmail, I go to Privacy & Security and then click Clear Cache and History. I navigate back to gmail. I'm still logged in.

2nd Issue: When I right click and 'Open Link in New Private Window' this doesn't actually take me to a private window. I have to select File/New Private Window and paste the link to that window.

Having spent a frustrating weelend being unable to log into Coventry Building Society's online banking app, I 'phoned the this morning to be told they consider Firefox insecure and no longer support its use. The app accepts my username & password, tells me they are going to 'phone me with an access code and then displays "Page not found". Anyone know of any other bank or similar who would believe Firefox to be insecure?

I have online accounts with both drawboard.com and offerup.com. Neither of these websites will finish logging out when I click log out on Firefox. I assume it's a Firefox issue as I do not have the same problem with Safari or Chrome when I've tried. I really don't want to stay logged in to those websites when I'm not using them. On Drawboard, the logout page just gets stuck there and won't change even if I refresh. On Offerup, it doesn't do anything at all.

Been trying to log out of offerup for weeks even with their help desk. Please help, thanks.

Firefox is already my PC browser, I guess that I have had it as my default for over ten years now. Has the new Firefox cookie protection just announced by Mozilla already been added to my Firefox or will that happen at the next auto update? Or is there some action I need to take to download this update to my browser? Thank you
