Be careful. Something doesn’t look right.

Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with schoolscholarship.cg.nic.in. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords, or emails.

schoolscholarship.cg.nic.in has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

How about moving the pop up away from the original text, so we can see both at once?

Or show the original text in the popup as well? It really helps to be able to see both at once.

Otherwise, it's a bit of a hassle to use.

Thanks for considering!

Hi

So I started up just now and when I started firefox it asked me what profile I wanted to use. I have only ever used one profile but I do believe there are some default ones as I seem to remember seeing multiple ones when I did some customizing awhile back.

Anyways I chose the one I always use and it loaded fine but I noticed in my task bar that the icon now shows a small profile icon.

I want the firefox icon there but I DO NOT want the profile icon on top of the icon as so many icons will pop up showing how many alerts you have and such and I DO NOT need a useless alert on the icon telling me which profile I am using.

I posted a screen shot of what my icon now looks like where as this morning before an apparent update it just showed the normal firefox icon.

So is there a way to remove that profile icon from the firefox icon?

Also I have noticed on my right click menu where I can select to open in a new tab and such it has also added grouping features to group tags. Is there a way to remove these unwanted options as I DO NOT want to group my tabs and it's annoying when I accidentally click that option instead of the new tab option. So for this is there a way to remove certain menu items that I do not need or want? I also added a screen shot for that menu question as well

Thanks!

Hi, I have Windows 10 Pro OS.

I am an eHarmony subscriber, and the program Grammarly does not work, but it works when I use Google Chrome. Can you please help me?

Regards.

I haven’t used Firefox on my PC in a long time and when I did decide to start using I couldn’t sign into Firefox because my two part authentication was Microsoft Authenicator, which is no longer in service. And I do not have another email to start a new account.

Today, 2026-10-24, it appears google is blocking me from using most tabs in Firefox. Versions are 115.18.0esr (64-bit) and 100.0b7 (64-bit). Worked fine yesterday. I have various Win 7 versions on my three machines. I've been getting warning messages from google for some time about stopping support for Firefox and I contacted them to get a date, but never received a reply. On one machine, when I start Firefox, it immediately dies. On the other two machines, it only lets some websites run, but not my personal gmail or my HSU student gmail. I was planning to install Win 11 on at least one machine, just have done so yet. I could try upgrading to 115.43.1esr. Yes. I am a bit of a Luddite; I started working in computers in 1977.

I have no issues on other sites, even sites with embedded video content.

YouTube, however, performs extremely poorly whenever it is the active tab. Page loading is extremely slow visually - the page itself appears to be loaded, but elements haven't appeared, and some elements that should disappear when video playback begins (the YouTube logo, or the play/pause icons) persist on top of the video. Buttons and icons on the page are extremely slow to respond, even scrolling is very slow, and sometimes even mouse movement is slow - clicks take anything up to 15 seconds to register, and it takes several seconds for hover highlighting to appear.

Video playback, when it starts, may not actually be shown - that is, the audio plays, but nothing happens on-screen. Pressing pause often takes several seconds.

And, closing and reloading the tab often takes far too long as well - as in, the time between when I actually click the reload or close, and Firefox actually responds.

Sometimes, I will get the warning banner that the site is slow, but not always. If the banner appears, as long as the video is already playing clicking 'Stop' on the banner seems to resolve the issues (but, I can't use functions like the comment box, 'like' button, search bar, etc). If I do this without the video playing, I can't start the video - the playback controls no longer work.

I am reluctant to turn off uBlockOrigin or Disconnect to use YouTube. I've tried disabling other extensions to see if it makes any difference, and I've also tried switching off hardware acceleration and using the recommended performance settings instead. I haven't found any way to force YouTube to only show videos at 720p at most, but I've tried switching videos to 720p (and where I can, away from 60FPS). It makes no difference.

Are there more fine-grained performance settings that I'm missing? Is there something obvious I'm missing? It seems that it's literally only YouTube that performs this badly, and only for about the last two weeks.

So MANY times I see this warning!......

Then I have to close everything out and start allover. I have cleared my browsing history, cleared all cookies and everything else possible,turned off my desktop, unplugged it and pressed the power button just to browse a few more minutes before that message pops up again. I have even goe so far as to unplug my modem, and router for 20 minutes. My desktop is hard wired to the internet.
