I was tracing some network activity for an unrelated issue and noticed that when FF starts up it immediately makes multiple TCP connections to livejasmin.com. I have this site blocked by the Windows Firewall and have the host file direct it to 127.0.0.1 so nothing is actually going in or out, but why is FF doing this and how can I fix whatever was done to enable this happening?

I have cleared all cookies and cache, and disabled all addons, and even started in safe mode, but regardless of what I do the very 1st connections that FF makes are always to livejasmin.com, which is obviously not a legit place for FF to be doing any of its routine updates or optimization tasks. My home page is https://google.com and the livejasmin.com connections appear before the 1st attempt to connect to google so this is clearly something malicious that found a way to get into FF early in the startup process.

I have also run 2 different scans tools on the entire computer and both found nothing. I have reviewed all the running processes and do not see anything suspicious either. I do not see this issue with Chrome or Edge, just FF which is my primary browser. All browsers are updated to the latest version as well as the WIN10 OS.

I have also removed my profile and started FF up without the profile, and I noticed the livejasmin.com connections again while the FF "your profile cannot be found" error message popped up. When I had FF make a new profile and set it as the default the same connections to livejasmin.com were made when I restarted FF with the new profile. So it is not tied to my profile.

Since the update I've had a few issues, most I was able to fix but this one eludes me. Opening up various news sites I get the "Firefox prevented this page from reloading" error at the top and clicking allow does nothing. Anyone know how to get around this error? I'm not looking to totally disable the FF feature that prevents other pages from loading a different one, but just to browse the website after hitting 'allow'.

Thanks in advance.

Donating

I love TB, but will not donate again until it stops insisting that I give it my physical address, or at least offers a compelling reason to do so.

Hi all,

I have a question regarding the permission requests of the Simple Tab Groups extension by Drive4ik.

As I'm sure many of you know, this extension needs to: This add-on needs to:

  • Download files and read and modify the browser’s download history
  • Monitor extension usage and manage themes
  • Display notifications to you
  • Access recently closed tabs
  • Hide and show browser tabs
  • Access browser tabs
  • Store unlimited amount of client-side data
  • Access your data for all websites

This add-on may also ask to: Read and modify bookmarks

Theoretically, I find this extension useful but I am concerned about the "Access your data for all websites" requirement. I read through Mozilla's permission request messages for Firefox extensions documentation and it seems like granting this extension these permissions would be a huge risk for the work I do– investigative journalism. It seems like I'll trade organizational benefits for a wider attack surface.

Can anyone speak more about the risks involved with using this extension, the trustworthiness of the developer, and why it needs the "Access your data for all websites" capability?

Thank you.

I look at porn on my Android phone. I use Private Browsing to do so. Why are my Private Browsing addresses appearing as Firefox Suggest results that appear outside of Private Browsing as well? And why does Pornhub show me a personalized home page when I'm using Private Browsing? None of these pages are in my browser history because I've only accessed them via Private Browsing. But these "features" sort of defeat the purpose of it don't you think?

I've just switched from Chrome to Firefox and never had this issue with Chrome.

Please directly contact Louis Rossmann's current emplouer. That business, FUTO, has been doing the work ; so much so, id content it would be the only logical business decision for FUTO to develop their own iteration of a meticulously secure, open-source browser for the community.

Id donate to that endeavour, should FUTO ever shoulder that responsibility.

As a short reference to provide context, here is their statement on legal challenges against their users & projects: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ReYTWc76SbI&t=6s

Doing the right thing is simple, but impossibility hard. Your project's 'soul' has not yet abandoned their principles 'ad' sold out .

Lately I've had to reload/refresh pages more frequently because of download issues. In order to the in FF I need to press the F5 key. To do the same thing in either Edge or Chrome all I need to do is right click and a little popup screen shows me the reload/refresh right there. Much more convenient to use. FF should use a similar technique.
