Firefox Community Forum

I have been trying to get Firefox to clean up everything when I close it down,

It is so hard as if purposely a 1000 development team have worked on making it impossible.

When I close it down, it must be completely sanitised, no previous site visits, login names, passwords, suggestions - nothing.

And I should be able to achieve that with one button press, not have to go through a thousand individual settings.

I have now spent an hour checking and unchecking buttons, it is crazy. For example I go to the passwords, I have to delete each and every one individually. Maybe there is another screen somewhere, but when I want to interact with "Passwords" I naturally go to "Passwords".

And still, when I go to gmail, it autofills the gmail account! Where did that come from? I have spent an hour trying to make sure it deletes everything when it closes down.

And it should leave no trace on the PC. no temp files, nothing.

I went to check one of my gmail messages and when I opened youtube in another tab It had me signed into youtube with the email I was checking!! what the F**K is this? I didn't want it to sign in with that, it's not only frustrating but I could see for people on public computers having major privacy issues with this. How can I NOT have it sign into youtube automatically when I used gmail? Those are two different things for me with different purposes. It's super frustrating and a breech of privacy, very upsetting.

hi, I assumed that I am allowed to use your latest version of Firefox browser at my work but have received company's email (not spam) today:

<<Please note you’ve been detected as being the user of a device running the Firefox browser. There have recently been critical vulnerabilities announced, and all versions of this software must be removed or updated to remediate these.

Please note Firefox is not "_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ " approved software (both Edge and Chrome are supplied as standard), and unless there is a critical business reason (i.e. developing software that has to be tested on the Firefox browser) the software must be removed. The vulnerabilities in this software are of the highest severity, and if not remediated, devices will be isolated from the corporate network for protective purposes. If you require assistance removing, or updating this software please contact the IT Service Desk. Regards, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _>> I don't like and never did using Edge or Chrome but now it seems I have no choice, unless Firefox improves its security critical vulnerabilities. Could you advise please if you have any alternative solution for me, and many others like me, or maybe there is more secured or light versions of Firefox available.

I use FF on a 2012 PC running Windows10. I was going to replace the computer, but a tech shop nearby has recommended (without seeing my computer) updating the hardware within. I have a lot of passwords stored in FF, and I should like some advice regarding protecting privacy by saving them and reusing them on the refurbished computer. Any other comments about refurbishing as opposed to replacing would be welcome.

I had a problem some months ago and my filters were compromised, so I was put on hundreds of mailing lists from commercial sites all over the world. I still get a new one once in a while, but there's one persistent one that doesn't have an 'unsubscribe' option and--despite repeatedly marking it as 'Spam' and trying to block it via a filter STILL keeps getting thru, generally an email or two about their products per day. Is there any way to report these people as a nuisance or block them totally? The problem isn't earth-ending but it is Vexing. Thanks.

I keep getting erra that my website ( www.bimaservics.org), is not secure. When in fact, it is

"Secure Connection Failed" or site is risky

1. I have cleared search history and cache. I am able to access my webite through microsoft edge

Hi there! It started yesterday. I keep getting warning messages from Bitdefender that a connection Firefox was trying to establish was blocked. I will include a screenshot of the warning. I searched the link included in the warning and it comes up as a Firefox related link. I had six or seven of these warnings within the last 3 hours of using the computer and am concerned and irritated. Firefox is updated automatically on this computer and I think the last major change would have been the "cookie jar" thing(?). Obviously, the warning only says that the a certificate has expired. Thank you in advance for your help. Yours sincerely,R.
