Every time I access the web I get a report from Norton saying "Threat secured". It attaches every single website that I open. See attachment for some exmaples (only variabole part of message shown apart from first one).This is occuring 50+ times a day but does not occur using Edge, so it appears to be related to Firefox. PLEASE help. Norton have not helped with this. Thank you- Colin O'Brien

I am trying to connect with my utility provider online. When I try to log in, I give my name and password. It comes up with a CAPTCHA screen. I click on the items but I just keep getting another screen. After a dozen screens it says CAPTCHA will time out in 2 minutes.

Does anyone have any ideas what could be blocking it?

Hello!

For a while now I've had an issue browsing with Google using Firefox. As stated in the subject line, Google would cut off parts of my search if certain symbols are used within it.

For example: "1+1" becomes "1 1" "R&B" becomes "R" "#100" sends me back to google main page "number #100" becomes "number"

There might be other symbols that cause issues, but these are the three I keep running into. I tested another browser and this issue doesn't happen in it, meaning it must be an issue with Firefox.

I have already tried clearing cookies and cache, and it did not resolve the problem.

I would appreciate help with this!

I've used Firefox for 20 years through the various iterations of Windows, and have been using it trouble free on Windows 11 since November 2024. Two days ago, however, When I tried to open the Guardian site (www.theguardian.com) it would open very slowly and not load and of the pictures. This gradually got worse, the site taking for ever to open at all, and always with the little dot in the tab at the top left going from side to side showing it was still loading. I have tried everything I can think of. Opened in troubleshoot mode, changed DNS settings, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox twice (one time to see if it would work normally if I didn't actually sign in to my account). All to no avail. In fact now things are worse, in that the GOV.Uk website is now giving me similar problems - and a few other sites have become slightly slow and reluctant to open as well. My internet connection seems fine, and all these sites open without any trouble on Microsoft Edge. I am NOT very good at tech, and I am now tearing my heair out as to what I can try next.

Any help wopuld be gratefully received!

When the VPN is turned On it acts like a dead switch and locks All bookmark toolbar links as well as Search entries stays locked and will not activate? makes FIREFOX dead in the water. (using Brave Search engine) Any advice?

Hi friends.

As shown in the image, if I enable "Address Bar - (suggest) Browsing history" option at about:preferences#search page, bunch of subordinate pages are displayed, which is barely useful, in my opinion.

I want to hide them, but I want to keep the auto completion functioning. For instance: I want my Firefox to complete https://youtube.com/ with only typing y, but don't want to see those 'Firefox Suggestion' pages.

Is it possible to set it this way? Or I can't just have it both ways? Please let me know.

(Thanks in advance, and responses in easy English will be much appreciated; I'm a beginner in English.)

Je ne peux plus accéder à Facebook sur l'ordinateur. Attente éternelle de la prise en compte des mes codes. Alors que j'y accède normalement sur mon téléphone portable et sur ma tablette. Je suis protégé par Bitdefender. Quid ? Merci :-)

Near the top of the Firefox page is displayed:

"The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can caused this problem".

How do I resolve this problem?

Please offer a REAL search engine!!!

Not this garbage paid content at the top of every search: Wokepedia, Snopes, msm fake new, etc.. People are figuring out how this content makes it to the top of EVERY search, and we're not BUYING IT!!! People are leave Google /YourCensored Tube owing to their censorship and pushing billionaire globalist narratives.

Companies like Rumble & X are the future! MAKE an open source, truly privacy minded search engine or PREPARE TO GO OUT OF BUSINESS. Because people are asking for it everywhere, notably on X!!!

No more FAKE msm news stories. All the search engines offered on FireFox Suck! DuckDuck GO used to be good, but now it's like all the rest.

Yandex looks to be one of the better options right now, but people are asking Elon Musk to do a real search engine.

I know the sites are secure (unless something is happening that I don't know about). I just want to get onto them, especially the Christmas site. Is it to do with Bitdefender?? I hope someone can help as the letter I want to write is getting time sensitive.

Hello, I'm an avid user and supporter of Mozilla Firefox. But I installed AVAST as an additional protection tool...and I have just subscribed today to Avast Antitrack to avoid being tracked and hacked. But, to enable AntiTrack, I'm now prompted to add it to Firefox !? Before any action, I'd like to know that this will be efficient and safe : can you confirm that this is compatible with Firefox's proper operation? Thank you, P.Huens.

Hi,

I'm having an issue with Firefox (on CachyOS, but i'm pretty sure that is not relevant) when I try to hit domain with PORT number.

To be clear, I have a "service" I am locally hosting on a more widely available "domain.com" (those are examples of course...) I am using this typology to still be able to generate Let's Encrypt certs for domains (that I own) not accessible outside my network for those sub-domains, and am using therefore Pi-hole to serve the few IPs of my few "service123.domain.com"

When I use a Chromium based browser (or FF ESR v128) the only DNS query is for "https://service.domain.com:8000" is "service.domain.com" (as seen on pihole queries and in FF-ESR/Chromium DNS cache), whereas FF 135 there is first a "service.domain.com" (righfully answered by my local DNS), and then a second query "_8000._https.service.domain.com" is sent, but my pihole doesn't seem to recognize (and shouldn't have to interpret anything concerning ports), so it sends it to upstream DNS (which are unable to answer)

I have disabled DoH, and every extensions. So I am really lost on what as changed in FF that would explain this, or if it's a pihole config problem (weirdly only affecting FF 135+ ...)

Feel free to ask anything, I may have omitted important info. Thanks in advance

OK, this is getting to the point where I no longer want to use Firefox. I have had trouble in the past where if I went on Edge for some reason and logged in to my email, when I returned to Firefox I was logged out of all my Yahoo powered email accounts. When trying to log on I would receive the attached message and it would take hours, and sometimes days to be able to log on. Even when I was logged on to my main mail account, I would not be able to log on to the other two accounts. The last time this happened is when I realized it coincided with me logging into my email on Edge, so I have not logged into my email using Edge since then. Unfortunately that was just a coincidence, because it happened today and I hadn't been on Edge since I posted my previous question in February.

I am always logged into all three accounts, but since this happened two months ago, I only logged into my main account and one other on Firefox, but I have only accessed the main account since logging in to both of them. I only accessed the other two accounts on my phone, which was fine, but I sent my phone to get the fingerprint sensor repaired so I'm using my wife's old iphone now. Don't get me started on how this phone sucks, but I needed to access one of the other accounts today and I don't have either of them set up on the Yahoo app, and I didn't want to take the time to set up the one now when my phone should be back in my hands in a couple of days. I came in the house and fired up my computer again opened my email and switched to the account I needed and surprise! I was logged in. I did what I needed to do and tried to switch back to my main email when surprise again! I received that same dreaded message.

I have been trying to log in to my account on and off for about five hours now, and I'm about to toss my notebook across the room. That would leave me without a PC though, so I am forced to use Edge, but for how long? I have posted on Mozilla support many times in the past for different things, but I have never actually had anyone from Mozilla provide an answer to any of my issues. Is that because this is only a community forum? Does anyone that works for Mozilla or Firefox actually access this forum and see these questions? If it's only a community forum, where do I get post my issue to be able to receive answers from the people that make Firefox work? My last post in February had 17 views, seven others that have the same issue, (so I'm not the only one), and no replies other than my posts adding content because you can't edit your original post. Evidently the people that have an answer to my problems haven't seen it.

Maybe I selected the wrong topic? I don't remember what topic I selected two months ago, but I selected passwords and sign in today, so hopefully it's not the same topic and maybe I'll receive some input this time.

Thanks in advance.

Why the focus on the search bar on the homepage and new tab automatically shifts to URL bar? I hate this. I cannot find any option to change this. Vivaldi gives us an option to decide what we want unlike Firefox.

Chrome focuses on the search bar on the new tab regardless, duckduckgo browser does same, edge does same, opera does same, Brave does same and Vivaldi does same but gives us option in the settings as in the image below. But Firefox automatically forces it. Why? Looks so cheap.

How to change this? I dont want this. I cannot see what I am typing when it shifts to smaller bar on the URL bar from the search bar.

And most importantly, I cannot change the new tab or homepage with any other search engine, like Duckduckgo or Ecosia or Brave Search, if I had any search engine addon from addon store. Chrome has no such BS show. If I am using Google, then new tab and homepage is of Google. But if I use any search, I have to suffer with underdeveloped same old FF new tab and homepage. Is this intentional or forced?

Edge is opening randomly, might be going back until this is user controlled.

Hello

I was reading this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ai-chatbot

In the section: "Select text to see suggested prompts" there is a screenshot which shows pre-written prompts and a textbox from the shortcut for AI prompts menu. Is it possible to have custom promts which are added to this menu?

Thanks

Best
