Just recently when logged onto Hotcopper.com.au have been getting a message that reads "This page is slowing Firefox down. To speed up this browser, stop this page." There is a STOP button, that helps for a moment or two only. When I open the program with MS Edge, the problem does nor occur. I was going to remove the Firefox App but saw the repair option. Repairing did not stop the problem. Any suggestions? John I have a near new Acer laptop running Win 11.

Since updating Firefox I can't seem to login to my Protonmail account - just says 'oops something went wrong'.

Would appreciate your help in advising how I can re-instate my Protonmail login as it just doesn't seem to want to let me access the site at all - it just tries to access and then keeps coming up with 'oops something went wrong'. It's like there is a block on letting me access? This has only just happened since doing firefox updates.

Cheers

The new built in VPN is not showing up on my laptop browser. I have version 150 so it should be on there if I'm not mistaken. I can not find any way to get it to show up. It has shown up on my work computer so I know what it looks like and how to activate it when I see it.

Dear Mozilla

for over a week now all efforts to login to my Mozilla has been a time wasting effort, I have followed all the instructions including initial using the correct password, resetting and confirming my New Password; and also entering my32 character account recovery key all to no avail. At each stage the entered characters are indicated in the red box with a writing underneath that it is wrong. All the above parameters are securely stored in my computer and a notebook.

Mozilla, how are you going to solve this problem. Just as you Firefox updated you do not check well to see whether they work well or not, and you push them out to the public. Besides you also force to update my versions which I have not given you permission.

Regards.

Firefox is already a product that works and is probably the best alternative to any of the other major browsers out there. It's a product that I've been happy to use for many, many years. So why is it being ruined by this needless push to add in "AI"? I don't want it. I don't want any part of it to touch my experience using this browser. I want either an easy way to completely turn it off so it can't suck up my data and expose my private information, or not have it be included at all. I will actively be looking for alternative browsers if these plans continue.

I want to make a personal list of websites that are not dangerous, but I don't want to waste my time being directed there. How to I create this "No-Go" list?

The links in every browser are going to take you (redirect) to a half-dozen places you might not even know you're being dragged to, in order to follow a given link: Think a 'news' item, that is or isn't. 99 times out of 99 you will visit advertising, also a paywall, or whatever they call it this week.

All of this is a waste of my time, which why I think about clicking on anything, knowing that it'll likely NOT be what everyone else wants you to think it is. For those times that I have my brain on remote, I want a list that I've made myself that'll take my blind clicking out of the loop before the nonsense even starts.

My own personal White List.
