What is this tab, and why is it hidden? My usually good Google-fu didn't turn up much other than TrustArc is a cookie consent component with a terrible reputation for slowing down some sites that use it.

Can someone offer more information? Thanks.

i stumbled on site actblue is sharing with 2 cross site cookies with websites i never allowed. i never look at the details because mac firefox "Standard" text implies never can have cross site tracking. (i find no exceptions in my profile and i would have never knowingly allowed any cross site tracking.) how can i quickly see which sites in my firefox currently allow cross site tracking?

Standard Balanced for protection and performance. Pages will load normally. Firefox blocks the following: Social media trackers Cross-site cookies in all windows Tracking content in Private Windows Cryptominers Fingerprinters Includes Total Cookie Protection, our most powerful privacy feature ever Total Cookie Protection contains cookies to the site you’re on, so trackers can’t use them to follow you between sites.

thank you!

Recently I opened a website that had redirected me to some random site, I closed the tab immediately but now I keep getting spam notifications saying I may have a virus or various things from the site. I've tried to silence the site, I've ran security tests on my computer and they say it's fine, I just don't know how to silence the website or wipe it from my computer.

I keep getting: Save Login for http://blabla.xyz?!!

if i say 'never' it just keeps asking.

now your saying. aah. thats cause it cannot differentiate a ipv4 and a hostname.


The gethostbyname() function returns a structure of type hostent for the given host name. Here name is either a hostname or an IPv4 address

i wonder then what this browser does. not remembering by name. here thus the word never is better replaced by -> ask me again next time.

Hi!

I have several problems with firefox lately. I loved it and I have it for years. It kept all my passwords, more than 100. A few days ago firefox totally crashed on my side, it did not want to start any site, while on the same computer other browsers stated them. After I realized this I deleted the firefox and uploaded again. Now it works almost for all site (but for example not for booking) but I lost almost all my passwords:( I have now just 23 but lost many many. How can I get them back?

Many thanks: Emese

I’ve already changed passwords but they have managed to delete a lot of my personal stuff including passwords. How do I stop this? Also the Firefox focus app keeps wanting to open an external browser even though I have it set as default as I am able to use it atm. But I know I’m still hacked. I have 0 internet connection on most apps and features. Also getting pages that when I inspect them they look like the photo attached….
