I recently, was my own fault not protecting my visa card but got scammed, I chopped the card but yet somehow someone accessed my amazon account and tried purchasing something just the other day. I only use this laptop for amazon. My concern is how to stop people from getting access to this browser through shared wifi and the person got into this laptop through the smart tv in the part of shared accomodation. I matched the serial number of the device to the device that appeared in devices in my control panel which I never authorized to access my laptop. I dont allow any access to my "network" to anyone but somehow someone got access. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. And everytime I tether with my cell phone its alwys a new network that I get asked by microsoft if I want to allow discoverable which I dont, but I usually have 80 -100 networks due to every log in with teher and wifi booster. Thank you

Downloads

I have defined the setting for asking to save or download but all files I choose open are always downloaded as well. How can I avoid this?

I have been having problems with several sites that will not let me sign in. The site responds they found something wrong, that I'm a bot, or just nothing but won't accept the sign in. Two today, MyHeritage and Economist. Economist lets me into that URL but no others, stating something is wrong. MyHeritage says can't sign in because I am a bot.

I am a paying member to both sites. Today I tried using a Chrome Browser and both sites immediately let me in, and everything worked perfectly. So I switched back to Firefox, and was refused entry. I turned off my Malwarebytes, tried the sites on both browsers, Chrome worked perfectly, Firefox did not work.

I turned on my VPN, same results. I turned off my VPN, same results. So the only conclusion I can come to is there is something with the Firefox browser.

I am retired but work about 8 hours a day on genealogy for myself and others and I am a researcher. If I cannot access my sites I'm going to have to switch to Chrome. I have been a loyal user of Firefox in 2006 and have refused to change since. I do not like Chrome . . . so please, if this can be corrected I would really appreciate it.

I'm trying to switch firefox dev edition to english

There is no dev-edition version in dnf, snap or flatpack, so i simply installed it by hands (from src i guess). But browser is not in english and i don't know how to switch it back. Everything i found related to "lang" is translations and "preferred language to display pages", there is no "browser lang" or smth

Perhaps i can replace some files somewhere in src?

Mozilla firefox browser is SOOOOOO SLOOWOWOWWWWW loading and working. Takes literally minutes after clicking open the browser for it to even finally eventually load the tabs - pages. Then it often lags, slows way down. Making it useless for people who value our time and life. 133.03 version. says its current up to date.

Please fix it so it works correctly efficiently.

Hello everybody, I'm facing an issue with an icon appearing on some sites and propagating down to the print out of the pages. Let me give an example: I'm interested in an article published on: https://www.electronicdesign.com/technologies/analog/article/55246421/modeling-on-mondays-nonlinear-spice-models-of-vacuum-tube-triodes-part-3?o_eid=9960G5790701E5D&oly_enc_id=9960G5790701E5D&rdx.ident[pull]=omeda|9960G5790701E5D&utm_campaign=CPS241216087&utm_medium=email&utm_source=ED+Power+%26+Analog When I open this page, an icon appears in the low left corner. And when I try to print the page, the icon appears on each page. If I use the simplified print mode, a kind of background of the icon (white box) is still visible on each page and can hide the text behind. On top of that the images no longer appear in the print out...

Any help to sanitize that is welcome.
