Hello:

I'm not certain if this question comes under Firefox or not:

How do you stop a specific computer software program-app pop-up notification (popping out from the lower right corner of your computer)?

As an example, I have a utility program, IOBIT Malware System Care that pops-up various notifications such as "update notice," "renew," "discount sale" or whatever notice or ads that is 'pushed'.

-I went to my Windows 11 list of installed app "notifications" and this program is not listed. -I tried contacting tech support but they haven't responded. -I went to Firefox 'Settings' -> Privacy & Security->Permissions and then I opened up 'Exceptions' to see if I can block something. It wants me to put in a specific website. The issue is not a website but coming within a software / app program.

So how and where do I stop a "pushed' notification? I assume it's coming in via my browser / Firefox?

Thank you in advance,

Steven

Hi,

Please tell me exactly WHAT AI, WHERE that AI is, and EXACTLY what DATA is transmitted, on an option that's enabled BY DEFAULT on Firefox.


"Use AI to suggest tabs and a name for tab groups"


And the same question for ALL other AI features.

There is ZERO transparency on this issue, and I'm mightily disgusted that you feel the need to, by default, force share the EVERY WEBSITE VISITED with a third party AI system.

Regards

I am on Firefox version 139.0.

I have attached a screenshot shown in the following link.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/pop-blocker-settings-exceptions-troubleshooting

I do not have this message. Have I turned something off, not set a option, or is there a problem with Firefox?

How can I tell if a web page is not being displayed correctly because of a missing pop-up?

How do I check to see if I have Mozilla VPN? If I don't have it, then how do I get it? I am computer illiterate, and I am also slow and forgetful due to my age (almost 77). I also have short-term memory loss, so I will need detailed, specific, and step-by-step instructions with almost everything dealing with computers. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
