All of a sudden this evening my title bar is shimmying left to right. If I try to pull down the Bookmarks/History/Downloads box it shimmies, too. I have no idea what caused this to happen and no idea how to fix it. I looked in the Task Manager but I'm not sure anything odd is in there. I ran a scan with McAfee but it didn't pick up anything. I am hoping someone out there can help me with this. I got rid of cache and history. Maybe it's a cookie issue and I should get rid of all of those, too?

Does Firefox produce pop-ups in this manner? When I scan my machine with Microsoft defender it comes up clean, but the pop-up start when I open Firefox. I have not clicked on any of the pop-ups. The pop-ups mimic a McAfee virus but I do not have McAfee installed.

How to stop websites removing the history of the back button?

There are many websites (I noticed with Google, Instagram) that seem to remove the list of previous pages. They obviously want to prevent that visitors go back (for example to the search results) and proceed somewhere else. The result is that I click on a link, the linked page loads and then clicking on the back button does nothing, as if I entered the URL directly into the address bar. I consider that a terrible user experience because websites are trying to control my options, even on domains before I reached their sites. Since one of the huge advantages of Firefox is the claim that that it helps users take back control, I hope that there is a way how to prevent visited websites from manipulating the history, which is outside their own domains. I am aware that I could open the history or type in the address of the previous page again, but it is just not the same as pressing the back button. Is there any configuration (or add-on) that could help? Thanks!

At some time in the past I used some feature of Firefox to create a policy that disables the update feature of Firefox. The active policy is "DisableAppUpdate" which is set to True. No matter what I do to correct this it keeps showing up. I have tried several different procedures to remove it but none have worked. I have tried using "about:config", doesn't work, deleting Firefox entirely and then empty trash and downloading a fresh copy of Firefox and re-installing, doesn't work, using an empty policies.json file in the distribution folder, doesn't work, I have even tried using terminal and entering: "grep -rwl ~/Library/Application\ Support/Firefox -e policies.json" and that doesn't work! I am at a loss of ideas on how to get rid of this and being able to update through the update feature of Firefox instead of having to go to the Mozilla website and check if there is a new version and manually installing it. I would be very grateful if someone could help! P.S. I forgot to mention when I click on the link of "your browser is being managed by...." in settings it opens a new tab showing "about:policies" and the tab title says "Enterprise Policies".

Starting with several updates in recent weeks, that were coming fast and furious, etrade.com will not refresh. They have an update button but nothing happens. "F5" does nothing either. All other websites work.

I figured you must know, that's why there have been several updates in succession.

I'm writing here because I don't know where else to write. If you can, please pass it on to the developers
