I-Firefox Community Forum

When trying to use one particular website on Firefox, I get a message that I am blocked because of an ad blocker but I have not turned on any ad blocker in Firefox. How do I find out if an ad blocker is enabled on my Firefox and, if so, how do I turn it off? I have ensured that the ad blocker option in settings is unchecked and even added this web site to permissions but to no avail. Can someone help? Here is the message I get but none of the steps in this message I am told to take show up on my screen:

Adblock Plus Instructions

   Click the AdBlock Plus icon in the extension bar.
   Beneath “Block ads on”, click the large blue toggle next to “This website”.
   Click refresh.

Were these instructions helpful?

I did some googling first and it seems to be an on and off issue mozilla has had with years. Anyway, whenever I play a video (be it youtube, twitter, instagram, even gifs on twitter actually) the video will often mess up and become a chaotic jumbled garbled up mess of green with junk artifacts over the video. The audio will play fine. It's like watching a scrambled TV station from a 90s bootleg cablebox, but green.

This issue doesn't exist in any of my other browsers.

I'd love to continue supporting Firefox instead of Chrome, but this is a persistent issue across the entire internet, so it's kinda obvious I need to stop using Firefox until this is patched. Thanks.

Recently, I am unable to open PDF's on Firefox. When I go to another browser and access the same site (such as a bank) I am able to view the PDF. I have tried some of the suggestions regarding extensions etc, but nothing seems to work. Is there a solution? Thanks, SVS

Even though my laptop, tablet, phone and PC have the language settings set to English (GB) my Firefox across all platforms has changed from displaying English results to displaying results in French. I have gone through and changed all my language settings in and outside of the browser from English (Canada), to English (GB) to no avail. It still shows up in French. and I have had an French to English translator popping up when searching in Firefox. I can't see anywhere else to change the language. Everywhere I see, it says English (GB), but still displays French headings to the searchs. Any help will be great. Thanks.

I have a PC. Today, Bing took over my Firefox. I have to go through Bing to get Firefox. I don't want that. I just want to use Firefox.

Note that I use two web browsers. Google Chrome (default) and Mozilla Firefox. No others. I don't want Bing.

I purged Bing from Chrome by making Chrome my default, which it has been. I use Firefox some of the time. I don't want to get to Firefox by going through Bing. Microsoft has enough domination.

If I open multiple Linkedin pages quickly (like when I open a bunch of job postings), most of the time 50-75% of the pages don't load at all or just stuck loading for ever.

I've completely uninstalled Firefox and deleted everything Mozilla related from my Windows 11 PC (including from AppData) but it doesn't help.

The issue persists on all my PC's and doesn't change if I try another DNS provider. I've tried changing a lot of the security settings but none seem to have an effect.

Edge and Brave work completely fine but I'd prefer to keep using Firefox. Any suggestions?

So only on my FIre Fox, a window would pop-up (a window that looked like it was via the operating system) that was asking me for my NordVPN Username and Password. When I would push the "cancel" button, it would just keep popping up over and over, not letting me do anything else. So I would have to switch to a different browser, whereby that would not happen. Is this something that happens with FireFox?

I uninstalled Firefox and only use another browser now, but it is not happening anymore.

I was the victim of a ransomware attack, I knew who did it, but the police did nothing. I suspect those same persons are still trying to keep tabs on me to see if I am still trying to take some kind of action against them. I don't want to sound paranoid, but these people, who are known to me, destroyed my legal practice, so it is worthy to be paranoid.

Anyone know anything about these types of things?

Suddenly my Firefox stopped opening links on a page and when I open a new tab I can only get a blank page or the Firefox default page. Before this happened (and I didn't make any changes, just turned on my computer one day and things changed) I could open a new tab and it opened with my chosen URL, which happens to be msn.com, and say after opening I did a search for something and then clicked a link, it would open the link. Now I click a link and it shows a new tab up top, but never opens anything, just the circle going and going and going. Also when I open a new tab I can only get a blank page or Firefox default page, where I used to get my msn page. When the problem originally started I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled in hopes it would fix this, but it didn't. I have spent hours trying to Google an answer. As soon as I use Edge, everything works fine, I can click links all day long. I have used Firefox forever and don't want to give it up, but if I can't solve the problem, I can't use it because it's SO frustrating and time consuming not to be able to open a link. The blank page or Firefox default I guess I could get used to, even though it's super annoying for it not to work, when it did for years. Thank you for anyone who might be able to help.

my best search site is firefox used it long time started as month ago will not scan says address looks wrong or suspicious and does nothing can you help, memory cleared many times nothing helps it seems to affect google also

Hello community, I'm a lifelong Google Chrome user just now transferring to Mozilla Firefox and I was wondering if it's possible to tab-to-search with, for example, youtube? Here is an example of a person doing the exact same thing I'm trying to achieve. Thank you!

Hey, so I accidentally deleted a password on my pc in firefox, but on my phone its still "stored" but when I click on the password, it doesnt show it anymore.

I am traveling in Mexico, connected to a network. I dont speak spanish but my laptop/firefox and at&t mobile phone now do - ONLY Spanish. How do I reset so doesn't automatically pull every website up in spanish?

Since the past 2 days whenever I try to upload a document on any website my FireFox crashes and stops responding. Upon Further investigation it turns out this is only happening on the Downloads folder. I havent changed anything in my computer. No new software, No windows updates. It just randomly stopped working last night .

I can't seem to figure this out on my own so i'm hoping someone here can help.

I have some unwanted emails showing up as suggested when i right click on a browser tab and select "share" and i don't know how to find where they are saved on the browser to be able to delete them so they're no longer auto-suggested. Right clicking on the suggested email doesn't show any options and they are not saved in auto-fill either.

Havent tried deleting all cookies/history, but im not sure if that would help.. Anyone have any ideas?
