Hi I bought a PC with McAfee on it, but it had expired.. I use s different anti-virus which is much better. But they have started chasing their subscription, and warning me of viruses which don't exist. I have tried to block it through Mozilla permissions section but couldn't. It sits in the bottom r/h corner of the screen, blocking any chatbox that uses that bit of screen. I can't get rid of it. Can anyone help? Ken

I suddenly started getting a flood of messages informing me of various security risks and that i needed to click a link to sort this out. Needless to say, I DID NOT click any links. I am only getting these messages when I open Firefox. The messages all link to "securebotshield.co.in". I ran Malwarebytes but it does not pick up anything. I am running the latest version of Firefox on a Windows 11 machine. Please can you help me get rid of this menace?

Thanks

I just received a toast from a sidebar app. Unsolicited notifications are the fastest way to get me to dump your app. I recommend Mozilla implement user-level control to disable notifications from sidebar apps. In theory, Mozilla is already supposed to be respecting my preferences on notifications. I have authorized notifications from only one website, and it wasn't the one for which I received this notification. There's a disconnect there.
