Hi, asking on behalf of my friend who is paranoid that he now has adware.

He has the default firefox homepage setup with the 'recommended stories' enabled. He noticed that on one occasion it had a banner ad in between the recommended stories redirecting to an affinity.net link. He has ublock origin.

He even made a mockup of what it looked like, attached the image.

I couldn't actually replicate this on my end, are these official mozilla ads?

in settings Homepage and new windows use custom urls, current urls doesn't include Pinned tabs. Windows updated and when firefox was restored two windows were opened, one was blank and the other opened old home page settings but did not reopen all my pinned tabs, gmail, yahoo mail,and some other tabs I plnned, there are 5 of them and several regular tabs I had open before and most of them did not show up in history. Pinned tabs do not get included in use custom urls for the home pages. Also for several days my roboform bar would not show up, roboform said no open browers to attach to when firefox was open.

Firefox does not properly install icons to the home page shortcuts. Where are these stored so I can manually add the proper icons, or, is there another way to reliably install the proper icons? Some urls pick up the proper icon on their own, many do not. This is irritating. The email me checkbox at the bottom of this page is non functional.

I use a news site for my home page. Like everything else it wants me to sign in with an account. Is there any way I can get my home page to open on the news site already logged in to my account, or do I have to just sign in every time. I hope I'm making myself clear - I don't know if I'm using the right terminology here.
