I have been getting random notifications that Firefox has opened a new tab by itself. This started about a month ago. This is usually around 7-8 pm, and I am NOT using the phone at all. Phone has been sitting un-used on the QI charger, then notification that says "New tab waiting from Firefox". They are NOT all the same URL, so it's not just one website.


Samsung GS3, Android 6.0.1. Firefox 62.0.1 I dont have any add ons (to my knowledge)

Where do I start looking for unauthorized use?

Sorry for the long wait, but I wanted to make sure it wasn't still having the issue. Doesn't make sense, but I cleared the history and It sure looks like this did it.

Thanks
