Is it possible for Mozilla to add a setting to Firefox that blocks .zip and .mov links from ever opening even if clicked on since a big part of the .zip links are being used to infect computers with malware

Hi,

Firefox issues warning while accessing websites which are signed by Internal CAs. However, we could see the same website working fine with Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, etc.

Firefox work fine while accessing websites which are signed by Public CAs. The issue is only with websites signed with internal / Private CAs.

Below is the error message:

Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to "XXXX.XXXXX.com". If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it.

If you are on a corporate network or using antivirus software, you can reach out to the support teams for assistance. You can also notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

Hi Support team,

I been using Fire Fox for a long time. I upgraded to two step authentication with the ten code numbers. But every time Fire Fox System keeps asking me for an authentication code to pair iPhone to desktop. I tried all the apps but I don't how to obtain the code from those app.

Can you please explain/guide me how to find this code or the app I need to use.

Thank you for your time.

In our site we trigger popup window with form being submitted with POST method and target="_blank". This is done so it opens 3rd party web app in new window. However, when popup windows are blocked for our page it (correctly) blocks popup, asking user if it should allow popup window. No complaints here. However, when user allows page to show popups, or allows for a single popup, while it opens in new page - it tries to open the URL with GET method, and not with POST, as originally intended, breaking our app. Now of course user can just re-trigger the form and now with allowed popups it will work. But should user not want to allow all future popups to be shown, there's no way for them to open a single popup with firefox switching method (and possibly losing form data?)

When I go to youtube.com in firefox it redirects me to https://secure.winred.com/save-america-joint-fundraising-committee/google031723/?utm_medium=ad&utm_source=ci_d_google&utm_content=kw002_na&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIx7rq04KK_wIV4-jjBx34MgztEAAYASAAEgKXMfD_BwE&exitintent=true. This only happens in firefox, not chrome or edge. How can I prevent this from happening?

I want to connect one of my Gmail account using OAuth2 and I face a blank page after accessing the Google connection page and entering my email address. It only happens on this account.

I have no issues to connect other Gmail accounts, and I tested 4 of them. Is there a way to know where does the issue come from and/or how to solve this? I already applied everything advised in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/automatic-conversion-google-mail-accounts-oauth20, to no avail.

Firefox keeps asking me for my primary password EVERY time I open the browser. It's very annoying. This article did not help me. I don't use the anti-virus softwares mentioned in the article, and I removed my primary password and set it up again and I still get the pop up every time I open Firefox.

Does anybody know what causes this?

Hello: Last time before today when I sent email was 23Oct 21! What fixed it was setting the outgoing server settings to "Authentication method: Password transmitted insecurely,and Connection security: none. I got a pop-up asking for my password,and my email was sent normally. My reason for posting this is to ask if this outgoing server setting is safe to use. I haven't tried this solution before,as I am very security conscious. I am attaching a pic of the settings. Thanks!

A week ago Sky forced me to change my password for geoff.bellx@sky.com. I made the change successfully but when I start TB it asks for a password (as expected) but doesn't accept the new one, returning message: Sending of password for user geoff.bellx@sky.com did not succeed. Mail server pop.tools.sky.com responded: [SYS/TEMP] Server error - Please try again later.

I can access my messages using Sky's webmail, so the change has been applied. However the webmail offering is awful and I want TB back.

I have looked through many of your existing Qs and As but can't find any which help. Can you please advise a way forward, Thank you

I use Firefox in 4 different devices and only one shows the vulnerable passwords and all of them are synced and also all of them have the same settings.

Any idea as to what may be going on and how to solve it?

Thanks.

I have passwords stored in Dashlane. 1. Would i be anymore secure if i followed your prompts and disabled Dashlane in order to use Firefox relay; 2. If i disabled Dahlane to use Relay would i loose all the passwords saved in Dashlane?

I would like to monitor what websites, who he gets and sends email to and so on. He does know to delete his history right after he's done using my company. Can I still get this information even thou he has deleted it from his history? If so, how?

Thanks, Sam

My gmail account keeps asking me to sign in every other 5 minutes. I didn't change a thing on my setting and up until yesterday evening the gmail still stayed signed in. I tried to add google.com, gmail ect. in Exception, but it didn't help. When I was trying to leave a comment on youtube, I had to sign in every single time.

Today Firefox stopped altogether and dimmed the entire window and popped up a "Try the Firefox VPN" message. I use Firefox specifically to get away from disruptive, intrusive violations like that. This needs to be removed immediately and never ever happen again. It's completely antithetical to the core values of Firefox.

Furthermore, several users have reported it breaking their browsing. See this Reddit thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/13rnt88/why_is_firefox_windows_11_version_showing_me/

This affected me on Windows 10 running Firefox 113.0.2 64 bit.

i receive an email and they have a link to open a video, when I click the spot to open the video I get this message

We have found some suspicious activity in this client's account and this link had been blocked for your safety.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused. If you think the link is safe, please contact the sender of the email.

I think something is blocking me on purpose from opening the link Tom

Is there a security setting that allows me to show all my passwords rather than having to toggle them on each time?

I am a recluse. There's never anyone looking over my shoulder. I just don't want to have to mess with it anymore.

If there isn't, could some kind developer please make an add-on?

I am using two computers: an iMac (late 2009) running 10.13.6 (High Sierra) and a Macbook Pro (13-inch, 2012) running 10.15.7 (Catalina).

Thank you!
