Is there a way to adjust the timing of notification banners being display in the lower right of my screen... I notice that notification for "X (Twitter)" only last a few seconds, which is fine... but YouTube notifications will not disappear unless I select "Dismiss". I looked at Notification setting but don't see anything that seems to address that. Thank You

Opening Firefox sends packets to Google IP e.g 34.149.100.209

I've been looking at firewall logs for my client and router software firewalls. My 3rd party firewall flags repeated outgoing TCP packets to IP 34.149.100.209 as coming … (read more)

I've been looking at firewall logs for my client and router software firewalls. My 3rd party firewall flags repeated outgoing TCP packets to IP 34.149.100.209 as coming from Firefox and 'Restricted', although restricted is the firewall apps syntax. When I look at the router firewall on WAN it was seeing the same IP outgoing. These packets only originate when Firefox (latest version) opens. Perhaps there's nothing to worry about or it's there to poll for those who want to select a Google search engine? Anyway, I've added a rule in the router to block the IP, although I think Google use other IPs.

There is plenty of web discussion to REMOVE restricted from Firefox but I want to make sure 'Restricted' in my case means BLOCKED, is that possible or do I misunderstand what restricted means? Thanks

Hi Win10 PC fully up to date. Changed my printer from a Xerox to an HP laser. In the control panel, set the HP as the default printer. MS Office prints on the HP without prompting. Firefox (134.0.2) always defaults to the Xerox. The HP is available in the drop down box. Restarting the PC or reloading Firefox makes no difference, Firefox always defaults to the (non existent) Xerox. MS Edge defaults to the HP. Any ideas? Regards - Andrew

For the Life of me, I cannot Figure-out how to drag-and-drop websites from the Address bar, to the Desktop on the Computer. I tried dragging the Padlock didn't work. I tried dragging the Shield didn't work. Tried even dragging the whole URL. and even made bookmarks with the Link just to try it.

What am I missing? Wracking my brain trying to Figure-out the Conundrum

Exceptions for DNS over HTTPS (DoH) do not work

Hello to all,

I wanted to use DoH (dnsforge.de) under “maximum protection”, but with one exception: I would like Ecosia.org to be able to place ads for me, because I am convinced of Ecosia and want to support this project. Tested this with Cloudflare as well, setting up an exception here does not work either.

Now the exception set in Firefox has no effect. It should not be due to the DNS provider, because Ecosia.org is not blocked and has even been whitelisted.

What is the expected behavior of the “maximum protection” setting?

Kind regards

I'd like to take a full-page screenshot of my content within my Canvas/Instructure online class, but it only captures what's visible. I've tried opening the frame in its own tab, but it doesn't help.

When I use my phone to capture the entire page, it can work, but it's so narrow! Plus I have to continuously tap the "Scroll Down" button for the capturing process to capture more and more.

Can anyone please help? Thanks.

You haven't provided an off switch for this "thumbnail preview image of the webpage" on my taskbar? I don't want anything dropping down from my task bar on hovering over it.

This is a new thing, that Firefox for some reason thought was a good idea. Mouse hovering on my taskbar, and have a drop down thumbnail preview image of the webpage?


Thank you all in advance...  :)

However it recently it doesn't always load when I start up my laptop it loads a different advertisement page for Century Link. I called Century Link and they told me it had to do with my browser (Mozilla Fire Fox) not them.?

Hello,

I was at a friend last night and logged into my monzilla account on his firefox browser. To my shock all his passwords, over 300 of them, got added to my password. I just want to point out here that his passwords were stored locally without an account. As soon as I logged in it started syncing on my account. This is a HUGE SECURITY BREACH and should be addressed immediately. there should at least be a prompt or 2 making sure that I want to add locally stored password to my account or not.

If I had not noticed it at that time I would probably have gotten away with all of his passwords without me or him knowing. I had to manually delete the ~300 entries. makes you think how many times this already happened in the past for others.

Best regards, Remco

I am encountering an issue with the Ultimate Addon Image Gallery when viewed in the Mozilla browser. On the user's first visit to the page, the image gallery fails to load promptly, often taking a long time to display. During this delay, a black screen appears instead of the intended images, and the images do not retain their original sizes.

This issue is specific to the Mozilla browser and impacts the user experience. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or troubleshootinghttps://globalstep.com/art-page-revised-v6-33/
