DRM nags are back ! I am very suspicious of this ! Stopping FF DRM nags yields NO search results -- but used to. Zero searchable information in the Mozilla databases. What a search for DRM nags does yield is LOADS of outrage (see attached) against FF. I am getting a VERY, VERY suspicious. Before FF tries to monetize more functions -- FIX THE LEGACY ISSUES !!! One thing after another, all week, month and year. 'Upgrades' of the browser induce panic and fear these days. "What will break next ?". You people need to look at shrinking market share and growing outrage and have a Come-to-Jesus moment ! Pawning off 'support' on volunteers is about as cynical as I have ever seen. No useful answers for weeks to many things I have posted since migrating machines to Win 10/FF 15x.

Glad I did that search ! "Back in February, Mozilla changed Firefox's Terms of Use and Privacy Notice for the worse. Mozilla removed a longstanding FAQ promise – Nope. Never have, never will" – regarding the sale of your personal data to replace it with a less definitive pledge" to "protect your personal information." Would it surprise you to know that a few weeks later, Mozilla announced that AI would be its top priority in 2025? I note that this was listed above privacy." Where the Hell is the AI Plague going to get a broken browser ? Look at those damn search results ! Gazillions of posts by fed-up users and vastly shrinking market share.

Looking for an exit now...

I keep getting a notice from Google to do a scan because I have been hacked and have a virus. I have done a Mozilla scan that reports no problem. What is going on? The message wants me to install a security app I am not familiar with.

A couple days ago when I opened Firefox, I immediately started getting pop up messages saying I had viruses. If I clicked on REMOVE VIRUS, it tried to get me to sign up with McAfee. I cannot see my full screen due to all the pop up screens. My MS Defender virus protection is not identifying any viruses.

For the past few days I have been getting 'pop-ups' showing various Error messages; e.g. 'Trojan virus found'; 'Trojan Detected'; 'System alert'; 'Attention'; 'McAfee virus found'; 'McAfee license has expired'; plus others. These messages are followed by various instructions followed by "via (string of characters).natrixa.co.in. I have run my security software (Norton 360) several times and no virus or other problems have been found. These 'pop-ups' are exceedingly annoying. Any idea how to get rid of them? Thanks in advance for any help. Regards John Cundy

For some time now I have been unable to see (or post) any pictures directly in my chats on Twitter (X). I can see and they will post in the main feed but not in my DM (chats) on Twitter. I have no issues on any other website I use. When I inspect the page I get this error: "Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://proxsee.pscp.tv/api/v2/loginTwitterToken. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed). Status code: (null)." If I post a picture in the main feed I can then send it to the chat and it is fine, but I can not post it directly to the chat! If someone in my chat post a picture directly to the chat then I can not see it, but if they repost it from the main feed then I can see it.

I am running Windows 11 & Firefox 154.x I have disable Badger, NoScript and ZoneAlarm (tho not all at once) I have tried installing a CORS workaround plug in (two different ones). None of these thing have helped.

Couple more pieces of information - I don't have this issue on my work laptop or my iphone app. Something on my computer is doing it - but I can't for the life me figure it out.

When I open my website, pvamarkets.com, I see a Cloudflare page that says:

“Suspected Malware — This website has been reported for potentially distributing malware.”

This is a legitimate e-commerce website. After the warning appeared, we completed a full server-side security check. We checked the website files, database, cron jobs, access logs, error logs, and file-delivery system. We did not find malware, executable files, unauthorized code, or signs of a server compromise.

Our website only delivers plain text files to customers. It does not host or distribute Windows executable files.

I understand that the warning page is branded by Cloudflare, but I am posting here to confirm the following:

Is this warning generated or influenced by Firefox or Mozilla Safe Browsing? Can Firefox cache an old security warning after Cloudflare removes it? Is there any Firefox security report or blocklist entry for this domain? What steps should a website owner take to confirm that Firefox does not classify the domain as malicious?

The warning appears before visitors can access the website and causes serious trust and access problems.

I have attached a screenshot of the warning page.

A Google Safe Browsing page now stops my going t0 any links in my Mail.com emails, & it says Firefox is blocking this, & it doesn't let me give permission to go to any of those linked pages I FULLY TRUST ! Mozilla Firefox is my default browser in Win 11
