Windows Defender is blocking Yandex.Ru, which is not even been tried to be access from. It showed in the Event Viewer that firefox.exe tried to reach Yandex.ru. Why is Firefox trying to reach there? There are no extensions apart from Firefox Multi-Account Containers installed.

Please advice.

Hi,

Firefox shouldn't connect to that URL by default. If you run Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode, does the problem persist?
