I am getting popups constantly from Mozilla Firefox. It is using a sign on as d9nnarOhubcc73e1106g.alphatechboost.co.in

How do I stop these?

Keep getting pop-ups on the right side, three at a time, mostly McAfee, but some others. I've shut off pop-ups in "Settings," but they keep happening. I hit dismiss, but they immediately return.

Instructions begin with "Click on the three horizontal lines and select OPTIONS." My updated version of Firefox does not have OPTIONS. Reinstalling Firefox did not solve the problem. In OPTIONS, PDF is supposed to be in the list. Opening a pdf file in Firefox did not cause an edit option to appear.

In previous versions of Firefox (up to version 133), it was possible to automatically trigger printing of a PDF file by loading it into an iframe from a sandboxed iframe and call print. However, starting with version 134, this no longer works.

Is there any other way to automatically trigger the print dialog for a PDF file in Firefox, similar to how it can be done in Chrome/Edge (e.g., by opening the PDF in a new window and directly triggering the print dialog without additional button clicks)?

I terminated my McAfee subscription, as Windows 11 and Microsoft Office 360 have Microsoft Defender included. I keep getting Mozilla Firefox warning notices saying my McAfee licence has expired, Trojan Virus found on hard drive, multiple virus on my computer, Critical errors etc. I have had MS Defender do several scans and no problems have been detected. Can you help correct this or do I have a virus that Defender cant detect? I have tried to copy one of the notices but it comes up as a link to further notices and I am concerned it is another virus. The notices are all Mozilla badged with suggestions such as Scan and fix, Turn on protection, Update windows and more. I am able to delete them, but after a few minutes they return. Regards Robert.

I have notification that someone charged to my apple account. Sure it’s a scam but I cannot delete it from Firefox app. I’ve shut phone down and closed the app but it still is on my phone

i have Linux Cinnamon 22 and want to stop the PIP on YT. I disabled/unchecked box for PIP on FFox and PIP still happen on YT. What can i do to stop this horrible PIP now ? thank you.

Hello: FF dev 150b5,w11p. With this v 150 there's a new irritant that I would like to stop, please. That's the sudden (starting w/v150 again) appearance on lower L corner, of a popup window, which may be interactive. That is, this thing is so new I can't say more about it except that I didn't change anything to make this thing appear, & this didn't happen in prev.versions.

I looked in settings & the only thing on keyword "popup" goes to, in "search results", is: "block popups & 3rd party redirects." I already had that choice checked from previous versions (that is, do block). But this new popup appeared (unasked) anyway.

Is there an extension that will stop these? If so, what keyword(s) do I put into the "search extensions" box to find the extension(s)?

Also, w/this new "wonder" of unasked-for popups -- is this another "coming w/AI" feature I will have to live with?

I did a search here on "popups" before posting,but came up w/nothing relevant.

Thank you.

/edit:fixed a formatting issue causing horizontal scrolling

I downloaded a PDF and used Firefox to view the file. I'm trying to find key words in the PDF and I always get phrase not found. As a test I inputted a word I found in the document but find in page stated phrase not found. What am I doing wrong? I remember that I have used that feature in the past and it worked.

When I am working with several open applications I sometimes need to slide the browser window over to I can see both open apps at once. Now when i pull the browser window partially off screen to the right it bounces back at full size. This is frustrating and time consuming to resize again. is there a setting to turn this feature off?

Running Windows 11. Receiving notifications from Firefox that indicate system warnings and viruses found. I have run several scans using Norton and there are no viruses. This notification is enticing me to click to remove the errors, which seems to clearly be a phishing scam, but I have never seen this as a notification from my browser as opposed to an email. When I try an option to "disable notifications", Norton blocks it due to it being identified as a dangerous "blacklist URL". I can't find a mozilla setting to block this.

The URL is long but what I can see is the following. via d3nt17anaffc73eqftbg.owx-adguard.pro

Hello, My brother clicked on "I am not a robot" popup after he clicked on an image to enlarge it on a website and then click on "allow" permission to send notification. So now there are always 3 notifications (like warning, viruses found, system alert, etc.) on the screen that will pop back on right after I close one. This is pretty annoying. I went to the firefox settings, in "privacy & security", scrolled down to "permissions" and "notifications" section, changed the status of that website from "allow" to "block", and then (and it may be my fault here, but how could I know ?) clicked on "remove website" just below. Well, now the website is not there anymore, but I am still getting annoying warnings notification that can't be close. We can see the adress (don't know if I can write it up here, but you can see in the photos attached) on the notifications, so I opened up a new tab and wrote it down manually to be able to click on "block" directly, but I am just getting a white page (no window to click "I am not a robot" and no window to ask to allow notifications). I clicked on the little shield icon that is at the left to the address bar and then clicked on "clear cookies and site data", but it did not change anything. I am at loss here. I went back to the website with the image on it that my brother clicked to enlarge, and I clicked this image too. The same thing happened (robot, allowing notification popups), but the address is different (you know when it's a long non sense address... always almost the same but with some different letters/numbers) . So I can block this one, but not the one that is still allowed somehow to send me notifications. I closed firefox then restarted it, no change. Any ideas ? (Sorry the photos are not straight, don't know why because I can see them just fine upon opening)

I get scam messages that say "Trojan virus detected!" on Mozilla Firefox which I cannot delete. I have run antivirus scans which show there is no virus or malware. I have shut down the desk top. How can I go to reinstall Mozilla Firefox default settings or do you have another solution?
