just downloaded a new version of Firefox and it loaded a heap of background programs that produce stupid pop ups for PC cleanup tools and other nuisance pop-up crap? When did you make the decision to add this crap to your freeware??? Most annoying......

If you get a pop-up message asking to update Firefox or plugins or scanning for malware then such a message is likely a scam and you should never respond to such an alert to avoid getting infected with malware.

  • Only update Firefox via "Help > About" or by downloading and installing Firefox from the Mozilla server and never via a pop-up or link on a web page.
  • Plugins should only be updated via the plugin itself or by visiting the home page of the plugin.

This is not an official Mozilla website. They provide Firefox which is packaged within their "special downloader".

pattywgnowen, How did you find this site as did you honestly believe that was a site run by Mozilla?. The long suspicious looking link should have raised red flags for starters.

Mozilla does not need to host Firefox or any other mozilla.org product at a third-party site.

If you found this link on say a Google search note that it can have Google Ads above the real search results. Those ads unfortunately can lead to dodgy download sites that may or may not be serving the same clean version you get at the official homepage www.mozilla.org https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/

edit: Bing search can give a Ad to this same bad download site as somebody else encountered the same site in a Bing search Ad. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1024261
