I have noticed lately that when I have the Malwarebytes browser extension activated in Firefox, browsing is slowed down, and in some cases a site asks to reload. For example, Twitter/X takes about 10 seconds to finally load new posts, after which the site works normally. I have determined that Mbytes is the cause of the problem by running Firefox in troubleshooting mode. When I turn the Mbytes off in extensions, the problem goes away.

However, if I turn Mbytes off for a particular site by disabling current site protection, AdTrackers, Malware, and Scams, the site still loads slowly. Again, turning MBytes off in extensions, does allow the site to load quickly. The problem I'm having does not occur when using MBytes in Edge or Chrome.

I have tried all the suggestions like clearing cache and cookies to no avail. I don't know if the problem is with MBytes or with Mozilla Firefox. I've tried turning off all sorts of features in MBytes with no results. I have Firefox version 122.0.1 (64bit). My wife's computer using the 32 bit version of Firefox, and she has no problem with Mbytes.

There is a bar that says: You must log in to this network before you can access the internet" and a button that says Open network login page" and then the following shows up:


The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

Please advise what Is going on.

When I click on a pdf file, Firefox opens and displays the file, rather than handing it off to Acrobat, which is my preference. I'm running Firefox 122.0.1 and Windows 11 Firefox seems to ignore the settings in General, Applications. (See attached image)

    If I set to Always Ask, Firefox displays the file without asking.
    If I set to Save File, Firefox does not save the file.  It displays pdf instead.
    If I set to Windows Default Application, Firefox displays the file.  
         (Note: Acrobat is set in Windows as my default app for pdfs.  If I find a pdf with Windows Explorer and open it there, Acrobat is launched and it displays the file.  IOW I've confirmed that Acrobat is set as my default app for pdfs)
    If I set to Acrobat, Firefox displays the file.

I see nothing in Firefox Settings showing an Add-in for pdfs Any ideas?

(This has happened more than once!) When Windows did a 'forced' software upgrade on my desktop PC, 3 days ago, my g-mail/email link will not load, therefore I am unable to access my emails. If I close Firefox and open the Chrome browser, I get access to my g-mail. I have tried clearing cache and cookies but my g-mail still will not open using Firefox. Do I have to ditch my Firefox and start using Chrome as my default browser just so I can get my email? Do you have any suggestions? FYI, I am not a 'computer tech'. I am retired. Hopefully your suggestion/recommendation will not be too complex for the typical/basic PC user.

Videos (with the exception of those on YouTube) have no sound, and in some cases such as Amazon or Plex, fail to play at all. Amazon directs me to plugins, and to select 'Always Activate' on Widevine Content Decryption, and to update plugins. This was already the case and had no effect. Plex, in some cases, simply gives the error: 's4032 (Manifest)', though this could be a different issue. Other videos on Plex have the same problem of no sound. This problem doesn't occur on other browsers like Chrome or Edge.
