Why did a Tiger favicon show up on my recent history after logging into my Yahoo ATT email?

When I went to log into my email it would not let me without confirming my profile information by hitting the "Submit" button. I tried to find a way around this but was not able to. The information had my name, an erroneous zip code of 99999, and my phone number. Since the info was minimal I went ahead and hit submit. It said a confirmation would be sent to my phone, but I did not receive anything. I then logged into my email, but as I was logging in it said, "logging out" and then logged me in. I opened a new tab to research if the ATT profile confirmation was legit or a scam. I was unable confirm either. However, when I opened the new tab I noticed the Tiger favicon between two ATT favicons on my recent history. I attempted to confirm whether this Tiger favicon was part of ATT or Yahoo but could not find out anything it. I am concerned someone may have hacked my email and phone. Can anyone confirm whether this Tiger favicon is legit or who it belongs to?? (photo attached)

Maybe settings?

I started getting a different login screen for yahoo and so I was on the lookout for the https:// that would ensure I'm at a real website. I noticed that I don't get any https:// on anything in my FF esr 140. Even if I enter it with the address, it disappears as soon as I click to open the website. I tried out Edge and the https:// is there. Is there some reason this is being removed in FF, as it is something reassuring and doesn't take up much space.

Thank you!

I installed a "messenger app" and it was obviously malicious... I uninstalled everything I could find, but I still am having my address bar hijacked, every time I enter something, it redirects me to "tracksearching.com" I've installed and ran Malewarebytes, Avast, AVG, and Windows Scanner, nothing picks it up or changes anything. I need help! Obviously something is still manipulating my key entry.

I keep getting pop-up messages from something called Webroot, which is purportedly working with you. It asks permission for "Webroot Web Threat Shield Extension for Mozilla Firefox" to gather information about the web pages I visit. Is this legitimate, or a scam to gather information used in surveillance or marketing?

Lately, I have been noticing that new Firefox browser windows (not a new tab, a new window) have been opening seemingly randomly on me. The sites in these new browser windows are always commercial in nature and seemingly random in subject matter. I am not aware of having clicked on anything that would cause the new browser windows to open. I need to know how to block this from happening; I am unable to figure it out in the various Firefox Settings.
