"Critical Firefox Update" randomly popping up
Has anyone seen this randomly pop up in their firefox browser? https://anuxubandyshirt.com/2871206567034/f821f0a478d29c7c9722cd273ca74a4d/87ebb0fe7c1bd11fe402a
It's clearly not from firefox, but I can't get it to stop happening. Not constantly, but frequently enough to be a headache. Is this something with my firefox or with my PC?

I'm getting this a lot, too. It happens quite often on yahoo.com, but also other sites. Did you install this ublock that was suggested? It says it has to have permission to "Access your data for all websites" and other things that sound troubling. Thanks
