Then that is a Extension issue not a Firefox browser issue.

Defender has certainly done false positives with Firefox related things before.

What extension is it claiming to find a trojan with?

Also check for definition updates in the antivirus client in case it has been fixed.

It was Malwarebytes Browser Guard

The Malwarebytes Browser Guard has caused websites to break. One thread has a mention of not being able to install this extension in Firefox however this is the only thread I find in the last thirty days for a antivirus to claim the extension to have a trojan.

Hi all,

I'm having a similar problem, but not with Malwarebytes picking it up but Microsoft Defender on it's own picking it up.

Windows Defender found this on my computer today and cannot quarantine it. Is this a false positive? It keeps happening every few days. April 10, 24, 25, and today May 2, 2025.

Did you check which extension is causing the issue? My apologies if you already have/know how to. But, if you don't press crtl+shift+a, then click the settings gear icon when the manage extensions page opens, then click debug add-ons. Then find the Internal UUID that matches this number: 5848b6ef-91e1-4c34-9a65-151f6b2c30b4\idb\2325712684IbDdB

Thanks you for telling me how to do this. It is the Malware Browser Guard extension. So do you think it might be a false positive?
