I have McAfee pop-ups that seem to be linked to Firefox. How do I get rid of them? I have used the McAfee MCPR tool, but the pop-ups remain with a Mozilla Firefox notification box. When I open a link from an email I get nine of them. Seconds ago I just got a system update Mozilla Firefox alert box; if I click on it, I get a page to sign up for McAfee.

I receive various emails that often contain links to articles and other websites. Although none have ever been troublesome, Firefox is now preventing me from viewing them "for my own safety". How do I go back to simply viewing the stuff I'm reading about in my email?

I keep getting a notice from Google to do a scan because I have been hacked and have a virus. I have done a Mozilla scan that reports no problem. What is going on? The message wants me to install a security app I am not familiar with.

DRM nags are back ! I am very suspicious of this ! Stopping FF DRM nags yields NO search results -- but used to. Zero searchable information in the Mozilla databases. What a search for DRM nags does yield is LOADS of outrage (see attached) against FF. I am getting a VERY, VERY suspicious. Before FF tries to monetize more functions -- FIX THE LEGACY ISSUES !!! One thing after another, all week, month and year. 'Upgrades' of the browser induce panic and fear these days. "What will break next ?". You people need to look at shrinking market share and growing outrage and have a Come-to-Jesus moment ! Pawning off 'support' on volunteers is about as cynical as I have ever seen. No useful answers for weeks to many things I have posted since migrating machines to Win 10/FF 15x.

Glad I did that search ! "Back in February, Mozilla changed Firefox's Terms of Use and Privacy Notice for the worse. Mozilla removed a longstanding FAQ promise – Nope. Never have, never will" – regarding the sale of your personal data to replace it with a less definitive pledge" to "protect your personal information." Would it surprise you to know that a few weeks later, Mozilla announced that AI would be its top priority in 2025? I note that this was listed above privacy." Where the Hell is the AI Plague going to get a broken browser ? Look at those damn search results ! Gazillions of posts by fed-up users and vastly shrinking market share.

Why am I getting continuous virus warnings each time I use Firefox and then if I click on REMOVE VIRUS it wants me to renew a McAfee virus protection service.

A couple days ago when I opened Firefox, I immediately started getting pop up messages saying I had viruses. If I clicked on REMOVE VIRUS, it tried to get me to sign up with McAfee. I cannot see my full screen due to all the pop up screens. My MS Defender virus protection is not identifying any viruses.

For the past few days I have been getting 'pop-ups' showing various Error messages; e.g. 'Trojan virus found'; 'Trojan Detected'; 'System alert'; 'Attention'; 'McAfee virus found'; 'McAfee license has expired'; plus others. These messages are followed by various instructions followed by "via (string of characters).natrixa.co.in. I have run my security software (Norton 360) several times and no virus or other problems have been found. These 'pop-ups' are exceedingly annoying. Any idea how to get rid of them? Thanks in advance for any help. Regards John Cundy

For some time now I have been unable to see (or post) any pictures directly in my chats on Twitter (X). I can see and they will post in the main feed but not in my DM (chats) on Twitter. I have no issues on any other website I use. When I inspect the page I get this error: "Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://proxsee.pscp.tv/api/v2/loginTwitterToken. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed). Status code: (null)." If I post a picture in the main feed I can then send it to the chat and it is fine, but I can not post it directly to the chat! If someone in my chat post a picture directly to the chat then I can not see it, but if they repost it from the main feed then I can see it.

I am running Windows 11 & Firefox 154.x I have disable Badger, NoScript and ZoneAlarm (tho not all at once) I have tried installing a CORS workaround plug in (two different ones). None of these thing have helped.

Couple more pieces of information - I don't have this issue on my work laptop or my iphone app. Something on my computer is doing it - but I can't for the life me figure it out.
