I keep receiving a site that claims to be "Critical Firefox Update" and offers me a chance to download a file "firefox-patch.js" from https://biadesevismetube.org. Attached is a photo of the page as I see it on my computer.

I do not believe this is a legitimate Mozilla update since my browser is up to date. I think it is some type of malware, but it keeps appearing every day as a popup new tab. How can I stop this site from appearing. Norton already makes me aware and does not let it load.

Thank you.

Hi   !

Good for you be on the alert  ! This is a fake  ! Firefox will always update from within the browser and not from a random webpage. Scammers have been using this tactic, trying to get users to download and infect their computer. Hard to get rid off, as they will change their URL on a daily basis. You could consider an ad-blocking add-on like :
