Firefox Community Forum

My cat jumped on my keyboad and Firefox detected 'unusual activity' She probably hit a combination of keys which lead to said activity. Instantly, I had to verify whether I was a human. I did, but really, it was my cat. Neither my cat, nor myself have bad intentions. I just thought Firefox security should know that these things might happen.

I hope that my cat's activity didn't compromise my account. Maybe 'unusual activity' should be less strict, though I do understand that Firefox must be vigilant. Maybe it would be a good idea to let users describe what happened, before sending Captcha?

Scam Nowadays became regular .before foxfire browsers was top est saver legends, what happen nowadays not understandable very weak security privacy Is there some one discripe Us what what type of technical problem exsit!!!

When the browser is open - whether with tabs or not - it disables NVIDIA ShadowPlay. The NVIDIA overlay says “a protected app is preventing desktop capture,” and I’d agree with that if it only happened when tabs with DRM content were open, but it happens even in an empty browser.

Have tried different solutions like Malware product and cleaning cashe and cookies. When I search a known safe site I get redirect by Convertitmas stating the (known safe) site is unsafe. Best regards Henrik Nygaard

Windows Defender is blocking Yandex.Ru, which is not even been tried to be access from. It showed in the Event Viewer that firefox.exe tried to reach Yandex.ru. Why is Firefox trying to reach there? There are no extensions apart from Firefox Multi-Account Containers installed.

Please advice.

Was prompted to download a program to Firefox before I paid my phone bill. I did not recognize the web address or name that was shown, and the account number from which recent payment was deducted did match any accounts I hold or held in the past. I cancelled the action immediately, without downloading, but am still concerned. I found nothing on the internet about this, just got a summation chat AI response that stated the phone company had no download/extension for Firefox. Has anyone had any experience like this or could someone shed some light on this?

Tonight I was roaming around my Firefox settings looking at something else, when I noticed this AI piece pre-checked. Why is FIREFOX, who is supposed to be for privacy and security, authorizing an update that automatically choose AI? Not cool Mozilla. Not Cool. Anyone else have this? and yes, I've already fixed it ;-)

To sign into Chatgbt I used my google account. Mozilla asks me "do I want to store info in persistent storage?" I click "learn more" about persistent storage. It takes me to a page that has zero mention of the words "persistent storage". That is a huge UX error. It says to me that really, you don't want me to know about persistent storage, and prefer that I remain confused and feel forced to agree to things I may not really want to, because you're making it difficult to understand what's actually involved. Not cool. Definitely now considering changing my browser after over 20 years.

My browser is being managed by "your organization" but I belong to NO organization. How do I regain control of my own browser?

Message reads: "Your browser is being managed by your organization" Please help me regain control of my browser!

Regards

At the top of my settings it says: Information: Your browser is being managed by your organization.

What does this mean? It's my personal laptop, I bought it myself and I don't work for any organization.

Thanks for your help. Nancy

every download gets stopped with "This file contains a virus or malware", have to click on the file, then click "allow download" every time!

I check the file with my antivirus and it finds NOTHING!

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Michael Staudt and I would like to get support form you in the following matter. For about one week now I get some strange, reappearing sites mentioned in my chronic – even though I have never opened these addresses in tabs myself. Please see the addresses (CAUTION PLEASE) and the screen shot attached.

and an omious new tab with the address: „http://127.0.0.1:42842/lp?u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“

I tried to search the internet for „syscsrv“ as a potential thread and I have found some entries in forums of people who seem to have the same issue. However, in the forums there were no solutions for the issue mentioned. Are these two addresses potentially dangerous/ malicious or are these potentially firefox bugs?

Thank you for your help.

Yours sincerely, Michael Staudt
