I founf the following documentation about enabling FIPS mode, just curious if there are more updated documentation since the screens are now different. Step 3 is easy using a script however step 1 no longer exists. Curious if it could be enabled then the profile saved and exported and brought into the new system allowing the configuration to stay. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Configuring%20Firefox%20for%20FIPS%20140-2

CCleaner piggy-backed a browser on to the system uninvited which annoys me intensely Since then links on emails or in a video in a magazine may or may not work asking what do I need to open this or not able to open because of privacy? Before it has always been automatic. Also I am now unable to open a private window. My system setting for Firefox seem to out of order somehow which could well be me trying to get it to work properly! I am confident you will tell me to stop fiddling and do this or that

I had to uninstall and reinstall firefox on my computer, because for some reason it wasn't online, while every other app was. After I tried everything else, i uninstalled and reinstalled again and after a restart of the computer it was all good. except my passwords and bookmarks are still in my filesystem, but don't show up. I have tried importing it back, but the preferences don't have an import option and i didn't find any plugins either for it. Copypasting to the new account "somethingsomething.default" folder, the json file with key3.db didn't make a difference either.
any tips on how to solve this problem? i am honestly lost

I use Benchmark Emails as a service that helps me to send out emails to about 300 of my ski club members. Most ISPs don't allow that many email recipients in a single email, so I am forced to use a service such as Benchmark Emails. But Thunderbird automatically labels all my emails as potentially dangerous spam. Whenever I click on a link included in emails created by me within a Benchmark Email, I always get an ominous warning that this could be dangerous. Thunderbird is really being annoying in this way and unnecessarily alarming our ski club members. The additional problem is: 1. I have to click on "Ignore this for this email" every time, and this has absolutely no effect on future such emails. Why don't you give us an option to make this a permanent ignore? 2. Thundrerbird also suggests that I modify my Security and Privacy settings, but there is nothing in those settings that I can do to prevent Thunderbird from labeling all Benchmark Emails as dangerous. This is a real shame and a black mark for Thunderbird. It's acting as a fear-monger and there is nothing we can do to prevent such scare tactics. Or is there? I don't see any solution to this except to complain tio the company. But the company doesn't want any emails from anybody. Thunderbird has isolated itself and won't provide us with an email address where we can contact them with complaints. Instead, it relies only on volunteers to try to appease us. Is there any way to contact anyone at Thunderbird? And why do you allow only images to be attached here? It seems more appropriate to attach the actual Benchmark Email here and ask you why you label it as dangerous?

For only ONE website, Firefox autofills only my password but not my login ID

I cannot say whether anything had changed just prior but, beginning a month or two ago, while Firefox saves/autofills my login IDs and passwords for all other websites, it refuses – on ONE website only – to autofill my login ID; it autofills ONLY the password (the login ID happens to be an email address, as is the case on many other sites).
I have checked and re-checked the Logins and Passwords preferences, which has saved the correct login ID and password for this particular site. I have deleted cookies, I have cleared the browser cache.
What else can I check?

Blocked by Content Security Policy
An error occurred during a connection to www.scribd.com.
"Firefox prevented this page from loading in this way because the page has a content security policy that disallows it." On IE, the message said it cannot be loaded in a FRAME. It's a letter!
I looked at and tried some instructions in Content Blocking. No solutions are there. Thank you.
firefox blocks ajax http request

Hello, I have problem with Firefox when web application goes on https and there is ajax request to http. Firefox say: Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://localhost/... (Reason: CORS request did not succed). Problem is firefox doesn't send OPTION request to web api. So server part is not in game. When I change address to web api to https, firefox sends OPTION request. IE, Edge, Chrome, Opera works fine. Problem is firefox only. Why? How can I change settings to send ajax request to http when web application is on https? I cannot change web api to https! I try send request through XMLHttpRequest in javascript. I tried to set up security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy to false but nothing change. I tried to add <meta http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy" content="upgrade-insecure-requests" /> tag into page but nothing change. When I downgrade application to http it works fine. So I think there should not be problem on server side. There are following headers on server side: "Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*" "Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "POST, OPTIONS, GET" "Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Content-Type, Accept, Authorization, x-requested-with"
There is function which is in web application:
function SendData(url, data, handler) {
var invocation = new XMLHttpRequest();
invocation.open("POST", url, true);
invocation.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json;charset=UTF-8");
invocation.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200)
handler(invocation.responseText, this.status);
}
invocation.send(data);
}
I need help to solve this problem to send ajax request from https web application into http web api. Thank you.
Firefox isn't clearing cookies for a website in my exception list after closing the browser

I put twitter.com into the Preferences->Cookies&Site Data->Manage Permissions list, with "Allow for Session" as the option.
I left "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" unchecked, because we're not worried about most of the websites.
However, it didn't have the desired effect!
I'm using the FF password manager to keep all my passwords under one master password, sync'd across all my devices which is great, but our family computer is causing problems: I want some important websites to have its session cookies cleared down when anyone exits the browser, so that I have to re-enter the master password before anyone's passwords are available.
So it seems that the Manage Permissions list isn't working. The only effect I saw is that twitter now askes me to approve the use of cookies every time!
After trying it out several times, my logged-in session on twitter.com is still active and I can see with an add-on that all the twitter cookies are still there. In fact there must be about 50 cookies there, loads of them!
After experimenting a bit more, I realised that it's because I kept the twitter tab open when I closed FF, and FF opens up twitter again straight away when restarted.
So do I have to close the tab before I close FF? What happens if it's the only or last tab open?
Clear Browsing History with URL
Like this URL "about:preferences#privacy" when entered in Address bar opens up privacy settings likewise, is there any URL that clears entire browsing history.

A few years ago my user name and password appeared in a popup box when I entered the local auction site and I only had to click on it to log into the site. This was quite useful but it disappeared and I had to manually enter them. I understood at the time this was due to security concerns. After the last Windows7/Mozilla updates this facility has reappeared. Is this due to changes in the Firefox browser or to the Windows update? Is this safe? Thanks, Alan
How do advertisers know my location?
