Hello, Can Firefox not use Google's safe browsing because there are some big conflict of interests. If website owners do not put google's codes in their website, Google will block their website or flag it as deceptive. This may become a large legal issue later. Only once the website user verifies with Google, will this be cleared. I run over 400 websites (all of the same codes) and the websites that I verify with Google were all blocked with a notice that the sites were deceptive. There are no difference in codes with the site that were verified and none were blocked. So I had to upload Google's codes to each website to clear the blockage. There were no phishing, no spamming, and nothing deceptive about any of the websites. The only difference was they were not verified with Google. Thus this forces website owners to put Google's codes on their website which is giving Google way too much control over the internet. I thought firefox was not controlled by any other company such as Google. If I use other browsers such as Microsoft's Edge, none of my website had any issues. Please do not use Google services as that gives too much control to Google. In addition, Google's Captcha is really another obstacle.

For the past few days hot links in Thunderbird do not open in Firefox. Selecting a link in an email opens or brings to the fore a copy of Firefox with the link address and the wait icon but nothing else happens. I have to close Firefox, copy the link location, Past and Go in Firefox, and then the linked page appears. This behavior happens even in Troubleshoot Mode, so it is not any plugin or customization. I am also running Mozilla VPN. With VPN disabled, hot links in Thunderbird open in Firefox as expected. Now you know where to look.

Also, when I tried to add Troubleshooting Information below, nothing appeared. When I selected to option to be shown what to do, this page was replaced with other which deleted all this text, and now I am entering it all in again, which is severely frustrating. On a page where the user has entered possibly a volume of information, there should not be any sloppy risk of deleting that information due to page mishandling. Open help or assistance information in a separate tab, please. Think ahead about this stuff. You are supposed to be web design experts. Instead your web site spits in my face just when I am asking for help. Think. Plus, I had to get the Troubleshoot information manually so that is not being as automatic as it appears to be , either. Getting help should ideally be a button click, not jumping through hoops.

I'm using Ubuntu 24 with the XFCE desktop. I'm installing the debs straight off packages.mozilla.org (currently 143.0.3).

Firefox's title bar, and window manager buttons do not have the same look and feel as the rest of my windows. And I have no idea where they're coming from.

They do change appearance in response to picking the different styles in Settings > Appearance, but the changes appear to be limited to colors only. The minimize, maximize and close buttons look differently than on all other windows, and they are more spread out than in, and the shade button is nowhere to be found.

I'm attaching two small images, the first one is the standard set of widgets all other windows have, and the second one is Firefox's odd duck. I could not find anything in settings. "Extensions And Themes" shows that "System theme" is enabled. Well, it's coming up a bit short...

Two QNAP NAS displayed readable web pages this morning. Early afternoon I updated Firefox with a reset and the admin pages on both servers are unusable. How can I roll back Firefox or recover the earlier version?

When I use on line banking and I want to look at a check, I can not get Firefox to render a check image. Also I downloaded tickets to an event and FF would not render the Q-code on the tickets. I what to know what settings to change in order to do online banking. BTW it works in Chromium Browser, but I do not use it and have little knowledge about Chromium, I just have it on my laptop for troubleshooting.

I am unable to get Verizon to verify my account when I am using Mozilla Firefox. I can get Verizon to verify my account if I use Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge, but I would rather use Firefox. Can you help?

My passwords are apparently lost today after updating Firefox.

What went wrong? How could that happen? Why, Why Why?

Anyway to get them back? Are they hidden somewhere?

Anyone else suffering from this update too?

Any help or insights as to why would be greatly appreciated.

In version 143 there is no rollup window option that allows a linux system to roll the window up out of the way. The icon is a caret located in the top right corner of the window.
