Firefox Support Forum

I´m using Firefox since many years ago. I have installed Firefox 89.02 and I have checked all the options in Dangerous Content Protection: Block dangerous and deceptive content, Block dangerous downloads and Warn you about unwanted and uncommon software. I have install Kaspersky Total Security 21.3 and a few days ago I received an alert: Event: A malicious link has been detected that has already been opened Application active: firefox.exe Component: Antivirus Internet Description: No process Type: Likelihood of an unauthorized software download Name: https://in-page-push.com/400/3906803 Alert: High

Is Firefox blocking dangerous software or not? How to block push notifications that can try to install some kind of malicious program? Thanks for this excellent browser.

My mozilla firefox browser keeps opening 3 new windows or 3 new tabs for facebook log in or sign up page about every 5 minutes. Is this malware/spyware, a virus or something else?

It just started in the last 3 to 4 days. I use facebook and play facebook games everyday and I use Stopzilla for malware/spyware and antivirus protection. I recently bought Reg Clean Pro to clean my registry and ran it. Could it have caused the problem?

I received this message after removing malware "buzz-it ads"

The proxy server is refusing connections

Internet connection is working. It's just not connecting with firefox and I cant uninstall it because it's my only "working" browser.

whenever i go online through MOZILLA FIREFOX on any site, and whether or not i use my privacy browsing, i am the recipient of a number of unwanted popup ads as well as several new tabs (up to four or five tabs) as well as a whole new window which says "about blank". This causes me a great deal of distress because i have to stop and close all these tabs and windows every single time i click before i can proceed further. this has only begun happening within the past month or so. i have tried to increase my security settings, tried to delete sources of popups among other things and nothing is working. PLEASE help me with this problem, i am at point of giving up going online because of all the frustration. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can give me.

At least half the time when I click on a bookmark or on a link in facebook or any web page , i get redirected to a totally different web page then what I was seeking. I have searched for help with this but can't find an answer. I scanned for malware, started in firefox safemode but it still happens. Also my internet speed through any browser is half as fast as it tested on the technicians computer who came to the house to check my internet speed. Why is that?

when I install malewarebites on my pc it takes forever to load up my homepage then I can't load a page on my favorites it times out once i remove my malewarebites software the problem is solved can you help in this matter . Thank You Arnold Sharkey

opened an email over a month ago from a friend. I got phished. Two days ago they sent the same email under my address and conversed with the recipients, impersonating me to assure them it was safe and give further instruction. The have also tried to gain further access info to one of my credit cards. I have changed my password, but when I attempt to secure it Firefox notifies me the information will automatically be redirected to a site. can't perform the administration.

Thanks to the nasty malware that comes attached to your operating system. I had to buy a new computer and stupidly did it again! I can't believe that I have this nasty thing AGAIN! I only do it because this website that I must go onto requires it. Now it's back! This has already cost me hundreds - are you going to pay my bill? I"m so frustrated. I'm not a techie person so I can't figure this out. Don't leave me hangin' here people. Help! Nan

I am getting redirected to unknown sites whenever I open any site while using mozilla. Initially I thought that there is a problem with my device, but then I realized that this happens only when using mozilla, not with other browsers like chrome, IE, or opera. These sites are mainly having the message 'Ad by ShopDrop'.. I am pasting below links to few sites to which I get redirected to

Hello:

A few days back this computer was infected with ad.ssl.imgfarm.com. So I did uninstall firefox to get rid of it. Slowly it is taking over all fuctions. Internet is not working with Internet explorer. When I go to the website....it does not show any information. I canot download any browser including Firefox. The virus has erased all system restore points.... I regularly run Microsoft Security Essential + I have run Microsoft Virus Removal tool+ I have End Protection from Trusteer...only that seems to work. Microsoft cannot detect anything. I have not created any System Restoration disc and I am copying files ....to try and reset to factory condition...wondering whether with the personal files wil carry the virus, into a restored computer or a different computer. How to get rid of this menace?

Last week, a shortcut to a website that I have bookmarked has started appearing on my desktop each time I turn on my computer. (In case it's relevant, it is a bookmark for the website of payroll company ADP.) I keep deleting it, and it keeps coming back. I've searched the internet for others having similar problems, but I haven't been able to find instances of it happening to anyone else. I'm stumped. Help?

Over the last 2 weeks I have had a new page open a couple of times, behind my main Firefox search. It claims to be surveying " June Opinion Survey for Telstra Internet OS X & Firefox customers"

I recently downloaded some some tool bars that were suggested by Mozilla Firefox. Now, when I try to open the Firefox browser it immediately goes to the affilinet toolbar- Account Data window which asks for the Publisher ID and Publisher Web service Password. I don't know either of these and can't get past this window to use the browser. How can I disable this or get past it so I can use the Firefox browser?

Hello, There is this program that keeps installing on Firefox, and I cannot seem to get rid of it. The program is known as "Mac x Deals" It keeps opening ads in my browser claiming that I have won an award, and I don't know what's happening. There is also another program that I cannot remove called CinemaPro, It supposedly makes youtube better, but so far all it has done is allow popups to start. I don't know how or where these two programs come from, and I'm hoping Mozilla staff will help me out. These two programs have crashed the application. I can disable this extension, but i c
