Firefox Community Forum

Firefox is my browser. I use Yahoo.com for my email and news. On articles with videos attached, I get the message below (see uploaded image). It is trying to get me to accept adds in order to make full use of Yahoo.com capabilities. I do not want these adds. I thought my add blocker would prevent this. I use "Ad Remover". This just started this week. Before I was able to view any video loaded on the Yahoo cite. Any suggestions?

There is much more to the following that I received from ChatGPT: The first place to seek answers is obviously with VeePN. I asked ChatGPT the following questions, and as a result, I also have some questions for Firefox. Where can I get answers? I do not like the Edge browser for several reasons. Firefox, as far as I am concerned, is the best browser for my use. Due to the fact I reside in Kaliningrad I must use a VPN to access sites I used to take for granted when I lived in the Czech Republic. This morning, as usual, I tried getting connected to VeePN in my Firefox browser. As usual, it does one of the following: 1) “Something went wrong at our end.” & “try to update” or “contact us for assistance.” 2) Continuously refuses to connect, leaving with the message: “Connection Error. Can’t fetch server config.” 3) Connects very soon after opening Firefox, perhaps 5% of the time I try connecting to VeePN. This morning, I spent many attempts over the course of 2+ hours, and no connection. Sometimes I had to refresh the VeePN extension due to the immediate, continuous, fast popups of “Connection Error. Can’t fetch server config.” Then suddenly, without rhyme or reason, VeePN connected. Also, this morning I decided to test using VeePN on my Edge browser, and it immediately connected, with no hesitation. This begs the question. Is there something about Firefox that may be causing the issue? I have not changed any settings anywhere regarding WiFi or Network & Internet Settings. In addition, sometimes, when I tire of trying to get VeePN to connect in Firefox after decades of connection attempts, I will use my Browsec VPN. I have learned not to use two VPNs simultaneously, one or the other, not both. Also, it is worth mentioning that VeePN is far superior to Browsec, but that is my opinion based on how they both perform after being connected for a good period of time. I can be connected via VeePN all day and have no issues. Browsec requires regular refreshing. Either VPN, however, is affected by the internet connection and the wireless connection between my router and the dongle that sits on my desktop near my PC. Yes — based on what you described, this strongly suggests the problem is more related to Firefox itself (or the Firefox extension environment) than to your internet connection or VeePN service overall. I have added an image of all the Firefox Extensions I use, obviously, some in the list are turned off. I would like to add the information that ChatGPT provided, it is in a Word doc that can be uploaded to help if needed.

Dear all, i use firefox 150.01 and receive a message Adbocker activated and some content is not shown correctly. Can you help to disable all adblockers

best regards Wolfgang

Issue is actually for the extension that I had and now it's not on the extensions that I have. I tried to do a search for it but cannot find it. It's the nielsen mobile and computer extension. I've tried putting in different things (i.e. part of the name, the entire name, etc.) but to no avail. I've had it for years so I don't remember what I put in or it automatically came up when I added this device. I hope someone can tell me where to find it/what to put in the search in order to add it back to my extensions.
