Hi, unwanted site opens every first start of mozilla after PC has been reloaded.

the site is: „www.url-advertisement.org”

I've scaned with malwarebytes, did a refresh of mozilla browser

I'm using Linux Mint cinnamon 22 and have the latest version of Firefox installed or updated from the app updates. Firefox was already installed and is my preferred browser. But i have the problem when i go to the settings page i see a message on top (picture attached with this post) that says "Your browser is manged by your organization".

Which is simply not true. This is my personal laptop and it belongs to me. I see an answer from Linux mint devs that they will take it up with Mozilla. But that was three years ago. Can this message be ignored or is it still the case? For peace of mind, how do i verify that something is not managing my device?

My firefox browser being hack multiple times, so I dident use it for multiples years... Now I just want to give it an other chance by removing everything that could create trouble. When I get over the setting windows I can read this: Information Your browser is being managed by your organisation.

I don't understand, this is my private computer. How to remove this organisation management???

One specific cache entry always contains a trojan virus everytime I run an anti virus check. I can't say where this cache comes from as it appears even if I don't open a single new website. I delete it but it appears everytime I use the Browser again, even multiple times during one session. It is always the same entry code. Is there a way to block a specific cache entry or at least to discern where it originates?

Information Your browser is being managed by your organization.

I did not enable this setting and it has to be disabled. I t seems one of your updates enabled it. Tell me how to disable it please!

Last week I upgrade to Microsoft 365 and now my Firefox browser screen no longer has a side bar with all my favorites with the remainder of the screen filled with information for a favorite. In addition, I had access to search history which I would delete with regularity. Please help me to restore my previous features. Thank you. Anthony P. Randazzo, Jr.

I tried the following to add voice search to the Firefox browser in Windows. I followed the instructions in the attached but when I open a new tab voice search is not in the search bar. I returned to about:config and the two settings = true. Why did it not work as it was supposed to?

A new voice tab opened amongst my open tabs and when I select it, it's Google Voice. I then select for personal use, I then have a choice from Android. iOS and Web. I select Web. It then says Google Voice is not available yet in my country (UK).

I use voice search a lot on my Android phone and tablet and would like to use it in Firefox.

I've got full-screen-api.ignore-widgets = true, so that I can use the f11 key effectively as a "hide-the-toolbar" button. this works nicely since I can still use my window manager's fullscreen shortcut to actually go into fullscreen.

the problem is, whenever I do that, firefox detects the change and then shows/hides the toolbar again accordingly. just wondering if there's any way to stop firefox from detecting fullscreen changes?

I naively turned off exit-on windowOpen & windowRaise, but that had no effect.

any help is appreciated.

Firefox on my computer is controlled by an enterprise, notwithstanding that my computer is not connected to an enterprise and never has been.

How can I remove the enterprise limitation?

Hello, I am asking for help to fix the following issue with Firefox when I try to update Firefox get the following message on screen updates disabled by our organization.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Firefox has taken to deleting cookies and site data each time I close. I have gone into Settings and unticked the box for this and all seems well for a short time, then it starts up again and when I go back into Settings, it shows the box ticked again. I untick it and sooner or later, it re-ticks it again and starts dumping my cookies/site data.

This seems to be part of a larger issue that has been happening over the last eight weeks or so where I need to reset Firefox frequently because it suddenly opens multiple windows and stops working unless I quit and restart. I'm sensing it has to do with Enhanced Tracking Protection but don't know how to stop the above from happening

I am on a Mac desktop running Ventura 13.7.4. I run Firefox at the Strict level (and have done so successfully for years.) I have extensions Adblock Plus, Don't Track Me Google, FoxClocks, Ghostery and Privacy Badger. These have all played nicely together for a long time. I also had Facebook Container and CanvasBlocker but these are currently disabled. I had hoped they might be the cause of the resetting issues as they've both been touchy in the past but there hasn't been any improvement since disabling them.

How can I stop Firefox from continually dumping my cookies and site data at the end of each session?

Hi,

I'm having an issue with Firefox (on CachyOS, but i'm pretty sure that is not relevant) when I try to hit domain with PORT number.

To be clear, I have a "service" I am locally hosting on a more widely available "domain.com" (those are examples of course...) I am using this typology to still be able to generate Let's Encrypt certs for domains (that I own) not accessible outside my network for those sub-domains, and am using therefore Pi-hole to serve the few IPs of my few "service123.domain.com"

When I use a Chromium based browser (or FF ESR v128) the only DNS query is for "https://service.domain.com:8000" is "service.domain.com" (as seen on pihole queries and in FF-ESR/Chromium DNS cache), whereas FF 135 there is first a "service.domain.com" (righfully answered by my local DNS), and then a second query "_8000._https.service.domain.com" is sent, but my pihole doesn't seem to recognize (and shouldn't have to interpret anything concerning ports), so it sends it to upstream DNS (which are unable to answer)

I have disabled DoH, and every extensions. So I am really lost on what as changed in FF that would explain this, or if it's a pihole config problem (weirdly only affecting FF 135+ ...)

Feel free to ask anything, I may have omitted important info. Thanks in advance
