Trojan Virus ?
Receiving Popups in Firefox Trojan Virus found, System Warning.... every time I close or dismiss another pops up. It indicated it was from McAfee at first, now includes websites I removed from Notifications... I scanned via Webroot 4 times now No threats found, None removed.... So I shut everything down and rebooted. Came right back up.
I am afraid to log into anything including email but I need help ASAP!!

Hi there,
Most likely, these are just dirty websites sending notifications. Unless you follow the links, there's no direct threat.
To disable notifications:
- Click the menu button
and select Settings.
- Click Privacy & Security from the left panel.
- Scroll to the Permissions section.
- Click the Settings… button next to Notifications.
- Do one of the following:
- For every website you don't trust, select it and click the Remove Website button.
- Click the Remove All Websites button.
For more details, see Web Push notifications in Firefox.
I have done as you mentioned many times and still they are in my way. Forcing themselves OVER my work area. CANNOT do my job efficiently!! It definately is a problem if they will not allow me to Dismiss.....
You have to select Block new requests asking to allow notifications.
