A couple days ago when I opened Firefox, I immediately started getting pop up messages saying I had viruses. If I clicked on REMOVE VIRUS, it tried to get me to sign up with McAfee. I cannot see my full screen due to all the pop up screens. My MS Defender virus protection is not identifying any viruses.

I recently opened Firefox to see a new flagged warning under my toolbar that says "The security sandbox is disabled. Your configuration is unsupported and less secure."

I have gone into about:config and adjusted every security.sandbox element to see if that would change anything; it did not.

I am running on Windows 11 Home so I cannot install or properly run Windows Sandbox.

I would either like a solution to enable the sandbox once again, or just remove the notification from the toolbar.

I accidentally clicked on a site that was supposed to be a game review site that I found on a Bing search. Now I get pop up ads for fake virus programs whenever I run Firefox.

I ran a scan with Mallware Bytes and Microsoft Defender and both scans came up clean.

I am including a screenshot of the popups.

Any ideas?

Thanks

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 ;-)

Does Firefox "remember" any browser data from another Windows user account? I created a guest account for someone today and while I was browsing, I got redirected to a site called fy3 dot fit which had the fake captcha. I did not open the run box and did not paste any commands from it, so is the guest account compromised or do I need to nuke Windows and start again? I read on reddit that it's an infostealer but if Firefox does not remember the other user account's browser data, does that mean nothing would be stolen if I did run it?

I got an email, supposedly from Microsoft with an update on its terms, from a microsoft.com email address. I clicked on it and it went to a Captcha window. Trying to click on the items (in my case, bicycles in the pictures) triggered multiple warnings that my computer was under an attack and that seven viruses were reported, and I should re-up my subscription with McAffee. I had Trend antivirus enacted on my computer, but discovered the plan was ended by Best Buy and there was no update or way to continue it. I continued to get the notices and clicking on the recommendations to run scans and update McAffee continued to trigger notices of attack. I reactivated my McAffee program, rebooted my computer and opened with Microsoft Edge instead of Firefox. No notices of attack appeared. I ran Windows Update and learned my Windows Defender was current and a scan showed no viruses. The notices of attack only appear when I try to use Firefox. I tried to delete Firefox to see if reinstalling it would resolve the problem but it only allows me to "Refresh" Firefox. What is going on here?

In the last 4 or 5 days, I have been besieged by pop-ups from a scam website (I imagine) called giuyt.co.nz asking me to renew my norton subscription or telling me a virus has been found or a trojan detected. None of this is true. I have run scans on my system and there are no viruses and no malware. I have been into programs and deleted one or two programs i dont use, I have cleared my cache I have been into notifications and cleared that. Nothing I can do stops this avalanche of pop-ups (about 1 every 2 minutes). Can anyone help me please?

Using the "re-open tab" function on a browser based discord instance changed a bunch of my settings, for one it turned on vertical tabs, added extra side bars to everything, and made every ui element animated. Ive figured out of how turn vertical tabs back off, and while I was writing this, I figured out where to turn off this stupid animated gizmo to select what I actually want, instead of directly bringing up my bookmarks/history. How do I stop a random website from overriding my settings in the future? If discord can do it through incompetence another website can surely do it maliciously and I really dont fancy this happening again. The "best" (and completely unrelated) I've found on how to undo this, let alone prevent it from happening again is pressing esc or f11 because of course everything these days has to drown in AI slop :/
