How do you know if recommended updates are OK to install?
I keep getting interruptions to Firefox saying that my version 67 needs to be updated. With all the malware out there, I am afraid to do the update. How will I know that Firefox needs to be updated?

You can check for updates via "Help -> About Firefox" to be sure that a valid Firefox update is available. There have been two recent updates to address disclosed vulnerability issues.
- https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
- https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/67.0.4/releasenotes/
- https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/67.0.3/releasenotes/
If you get a pop-up message asking to update Firefox or plugins or scanning for malware then such a message is likely a scam and you should NEVER respond to such an alert to avoid getting infected with malware.
- only update Firefox via "Help -> About" or by downloading and installing Firefox from the Mozilla and never via a pop-up or link on a web page.
- plugins should only be updated via the plugin itself or by visiting the home page of the plugin.
