About once a week or more, a very small FF icon will appear on my desktop after startup. It will have a string of letters under it, like this one: hqWyUevN . I have never clicked on these things and always pitch them into the trash bin. But I do wonder what it is, what it means, and if it's a security issue of some sort.

Please speak slowly and use simple words. I'm not all that tech savvy.

Thanks!

With the last update of iPadOS 18 and Firefox I recognized, that when in background and when I switch between apps, the Firefox screen is showing a website with private information. It is always the same screen from a wensite where I had to put private information in. Even a restart with reset and a new installation of the firefox app does not change that.

In connection with the fact, that private browsing mode is not the default on ios this is concerning me. Firefox should be private first!

When in background the app switcher should show nothing from my browsing window. Is there a way to change this behavior?

Thank you for any help in this regard!

Hello,

We are manufacturers of networking devices.

As most networking devices, ours can be configured by navigating to the default gateway IP address via the browser. With the rise of security awareness, various regulations are forbidding the usage of HTTP. This is bothersome to us, as connecting to our devices via HTTPS and our self-signed sertificates will always throw an error of an unsecure connection to the end user. We understand the technical reasoning for this and that users are able to ignore the message, but this does impact our user experience and it may even discourage users from using our devices.

As these regulations will be impacting networking devices globally, we want to ask you if there are any workarounds for the self-signed sertificate "unsecure connection" message. Perhaps there is an argument that can be set, or an ongoing effort from browser vendors to assist networking device manufacturers with this.

Any information or help is appreciated.

Thank you.

Find that at each update, the Startpage search engine is re-installed WITHOUT my permission. I understand startpage can be defined as a PUP, and I don't trust it. The most aggravating thing is that installing add-ons and extentions without users' permission is unconscionable.

Would like to know if there is any way I can block the reinstallation of this at each update.

Thanks.

At computer cold boot on windows 11 home pro, Firefox view is open even though it is not in the start menu. It displays a flashy investment type site with a popup "sign up now" window over it. It does not happen on every cold start but does regularly. The site it displays does not show in history before of after it happens. I can find no place on the computer where that site exists, Bitdefender doesn't find anything and neither does Malwarebytes.

Is this something that Firefox did at last update to 132.02 which is when it started happening? Are you now going to have ads all over?

How do I stop this before there is an accidental software install from what looks like a very questionable website.

It was called "Trendview" which an existing website that doesn't have a great reputation and no way to contact them on their website that I can find.

I've found that some of my emaIls in very latest Thunderbird mail client on Windows 10 have had their content replaced with a phishing email - the title of the email is as per the existing email received yesterday but the content is a phishing email made to look like a contact request from a motor insurance provider that I used years ago and the email is addressed to the email address I used when dealing with said insurance company.  It's only an issue with Thunderbird as the email looks fine on my mobile phone and in Outlook.  Either Thunderbird itself is compromised or one of the installed extensions is compromised.

Has anyone come across a similar issue?

I'm running an antivirus scan but I think I might uninstall and wipe clean Thunderbird if the scan shows no issues.

Hi there,

Our website is not showing to our customers and they are receiveing this error MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_OCSP_RESPONSE_FOR_CERT_MISSING

We have checked our site with SSL Labs https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=locomotivestation.com.au and it returns showing the SSL is fine.

We can see the site and operate on Google Chrome but cannot work out why it is not displaying on Firefox.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
