I recently purchased a new HP laptop to replace my old laptop. On the old laptop I used Firefox as my default browser. I do not care for Chrome or Microsoft Edge. On my old computer I had installed Trend Micro Toolbar on my Firefox browser and loved the protection it gave me on the web. However, since I purchased my new HP laptop I have been unsuccessful adding Trend Micro Toolbar, so I have had to settle for using Chrome. Can you please advise me how to add Trend Micro Toolbar to my Firefox browser?

Respectfully,

"Optional" AI Features and Disabling Ad Blockers

Good Evening,

I switched to Firefox as my primary browser from Chrome due to Chrome's instance on forcing unnecessary and intrusive AI features onto the platform, and their revoking support for ad blockers.

Anthony Enzor-DeMeo's quote from his recent blog post announcing that Firefox "will evolve into a modern AI browser" is a huge red flag for me. I do not care how much he may promise the features will be "something people can easily turn off", I do not trust it will remain that way. Mozilla will have a bad quarter and suddenly those won't be optional features anymore. I have seen it happen with other tech companies and it's infuriating that Mozilla seems to be merrily skipping down the same path.

In addition to the AI bloat Mozilla seems to insisting they need, Enzor-DeMeo recently said that "He could begin to block ad blockers in Firefox and estimates that'd bring in another $150 million, but he doesn't want to do that." To even joke about that is an astounding misstep. I specifically joined Firefox to be able to use an ad blockers.

I've enjoyed my time with Firefox and have recommended it to friends in the past, but I have changed browsers before. If Firefox continues to forge ahead with these frankly absurd changes, I will have to do so again.

Shortly after upgrading FireFox, whenever I try to go to a website, like PayPal or my bank or anything else, I immediately get a large Ad/site for something frequently related somehow.

Like my bank I will get something suggesting an online bank, or ways to make banking easier. It will be a large window, covering my original window. I have to exit THAT site to get to the one I want.

It is a separate window, I cannot just X it out, I must shut down that window. Then the window that I actually want will be beneath it.

I can't figure out how to fix it.
