ნუ გაებმებით თაღლითების მახეში. აქ არავინ უნდა მოგთხოვოთ ტელეფონზე დარეკვა, შეტყობინების გაგზავნა ან პირადი მონაცემების გაზიარება. რამე საეჭვოს შემჩნევისას გთხოვთ გვაცნობოთ „დარღვევის მოხსენებით“.

I use Linux Mint Cinnamon 18.3 64-bit. I installed Firefox 57 via Linux Mint repository. Yesterday I scanned my HDD by BitDefender for linux and found virus infection on my Firefox files. It could be a virus intrusion on Mozilla or Mint server. It would be better if Mozilla checks his server.
