Here is what ion the settings page under the general tab, system has been disabled by system administrator. I don't have a administrator. I can't get anywhere using terminal. Looks like someone is controlling things. I did finally get over to my latest new email address, [edited] @protonmail.com. Do you think I will have to erase the HDrive and start over. And than who knows how that will work. What do you think ? Thanks Gary

I'm new to Firefox (I just started checking it out today). I came from Chrome and I have some questions.


1. Does Firefox have a limit to how much internet history it can hold? I did a full sync from Chrome.

2. Can I delete the folder "Old Firefox Data"?

3. How do we turn off "Thought-provoking Stories"?

4. Will there be an option to upload images to make them the homepage background?

Reports of "Trojan blocked" when I am on the Mozilla website

Why am I receiving repeated warnings from Malwarebytes about blocking every-day websites due to a "Trojan"? The sites include Gmail, Ancestry.com, Newspapers.com and others.

The report warnings are being generated by the Malwarebytes program on my PC. They are confusing to me. I am running Windows 11. The warnings are being logged by the Malwarebytes program in the "Web Protection" section of its "Detection History" web page. In every instance, the log reports are the same: in the URL identification column there is no identification of the URL, only repeated instances of "N/A"; the IP address is identical for all the warnings; the port is always "0"; the file column alternates from "C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Mozilla VPN\Mozilla VPN.exe" to "System" and back again to "C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Mozilla VPN\Mozilla VPN.exe"; in the final column of the log, the Date column, the warnings began last evening, Monday the 12th, at 6:50 p.m. and have now extended to to a total nine warnings.

Even as I was writing this communication, the Malwarebytes warning popped up on my screen, telling me that this website and this web page are blocked due to the presence of a Trojan.

Is my PC infected? The Malwarebytes "scan" reports no "detections." I am at a loss.

Hi. I did a clean install of Windows 11 yesterday. I reinstalled Firefox with the TreeStyletabs addon. I had saved the old sessionstore files so I thought it would be easy to get my tabs back.

Two things happens.

1) If I copy over a sessionstore.jsonlz4 to the profilefolder, it gets overwritten byt FireFox when I start the browser. 2) If I don't do that and instead click History and then Restore Previous Session Firefox will use the previousjsonlz4 and restore my tabs . But I have to do it everytime I start Firefox. It does 'remember' what I did.

How can I fix this?
