I updated to Firefox 115.14 on my Mac and ALL of my Norton extensions including my NORTON PASSWORD MANAGER AND I WANT THAT BACK or else I want to REVERT to the older version of Firefox. This has really screwed me up and I don't appreciate it at all! The update also blew out all of my extensions...EVERYONE OF THEM. I'm really UPSET at this!!!!!!

A REALLY UPSET CUSTOMER!!!!!

Tell me what I have to do to gain access. I have gained access to my SS account in the past. So I was puzzled by this "Bad Request" response from Firefox. - Norman Griffiths 8/22/2024

I'm a newbie using Debian and Deb 12 ships with Firefox ESR and I've decided to stick with it instead of the regular release, 'cause it breaks some extensions I have. However, I want to upgrade to the latest ESR version, how do I do it? I tried going to (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-esr), but the file for linux 64 bit is a .tar.bz2 file, which I have no idea how to compile.

Secure connection cannot be established

When a website that requires a secure (HTTPS) connection tries to secure communication with your computer, Firefox cross-checks this attempt to make sure that the website certificate and the connection method are actually secure. If Firefox cannot establish a secure connection, it will display a Secure Connection Failed or Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue error page. Secure Connection Failed

A Secure Connection Failed error page will include a description of the error and a Try Again button. There is no option to add a security exception to bypass this type of error.

On FireFox v115, on Mac system High Sierra, 10.13.6. Autoplay setting will not let me remove this 'about:welcome^privateBrowsingld=1' or this 'about:welcome' no matter how many times I try. The version on my Mac laptop,129, does not have this or anything. What is this?
