When I attempt to use Firefox autofill for address/credit card/etc, Linux will prompt for Root password. After entering root password, everything freezes. I have no access to mouse or keyboard and my entire OS become unresponsive. Besides the hangup, my firefox tabs randomly crash as well with the following bug tag: https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/3020d645-af46-4821-bbfc-e4d680250213. I don't know if the two are related, but both eventually lead my my OS freezing with only hard power down. Every time I try to use autofill, it freezes my OS. I can keep replicating the issue.

Specs:

Linux Mint 21.3 x86_64

Kernal 6.12.13-x64v3-xanmod1

Cinnamon 6.0.4

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X

GPU: AMD ATI Radeon RX 5600

RAM: TridentZ Neo 64GB

Software is Preventing Firefox From Safely Connecting to This Site

news.google.com is most likely a safe site, but a secure connection could not be established. This issue is caused by Private Internet Access, which is either software on your computer or your network.

What can you do about it?

news.google.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

   If your antivirus software includes a feature that scans encrypted connections (often called “web scanning” or “https scanning”), you can disable that feature. If that doesn’t work, you can remove and reinstall the antivirus software.
   If you are on a corporate network, you can contact your IT department.
   If you are not familiar with Private Internet Access, then this could be an attack, and there is nothing you can do to access the site.

I get an error message when I try to open my files in my outlook one drive account. I've contacted my IT service about it, and they have informed me it's a problem between Firefox and Outlook. I've tried on other browsers (such as Chrome) and I don't have this problem. Please could you advise? This is the first time this has happened, and I've been using Outlook and Onedrive on my firefox for 2 years now without problems.

My Firefox is using a lot of data; I don’t know why.

I am not using Firefox, and it is not running in the background, yet it is always using the internet. So what do I need to do in this situation? I tried to stop the internet connection using outbound rules, but it did not work. It is still using the internet. What is the reason my browser has high data usage? I have high data usage; in fact, in the past 12 days, we've used 30+ GB of data.

When I open one tab on Firefox, my task manager shows multiple programs running along side it. I know some extra processes are needed but this seems like an unusual amount. I have included a screenshot of the tasks that appear. When I try to delete these, they reappear. I have tried various online solutions such as uninstalling and reinstalling, and checking various settings. It is affecting my computer's performance and I am not sure how to solve this. Thank you!

My Canon printer disconnected from my computer after Firefox offered me CutePDF writer printing which I did not take.

The drop down menu for printers under settings no longer shows my Canon, only this Cute one.

Not Cute...Need to be able to print.

Connection to Zoom on this same desktop is not working right. The meeting flashes on and off. Ideas?

Im not sure when the issue first started as Firefox updates quite often. Here is the issue: When logging into my router settings page locally,(http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to access router on network), the forms constantly overlap. For example there is a form on the left that shows each settings page and the form on the right which is the settings i currently have selected.

When each settings form is loaded it is overlapped by the form on the right. To fix it i zoom in or out. And the forms re-align. But then they almost immediately snap back making it almost impossible to enter any data. This has not been an issue in the past, but i havent had to adjust my router setting for a while. It's driving me insane, so much that i installed a chrome browser just to access my router info. But i would prefer to use firefox as i do not like chrome.

This is also on both an old install and a brand new install of windows 10 and new install of firefox.

The router is a c4000bg from centurylink.

Thank you for any assistance in the matter.
