Firefox randomly logs me off of a site then asks if I want a weather report
Often my work day begins with a internet search. I get involved in the site that I have successfully found. Randomly, Firefox simply logs me out of all tabs and asks if I want to get a weather report. I have figured out how to delete the add on weather app that I never asked for in the first place, but problem still persists.

What do you mean by; logs me out of all tabs ? Is the browser closing? Closing the tabs?
It’s very sad, but many software downloaders/ installers will trick you into installing not only their program, but other programs as well.
You have heard of the fine print in shady contracts, right? Well, some installers you need to look at the itsy bitsy teeny weeny fine print.
You are thinking you are giving the installer permission to install the program you want by using the recommended option. But if you use the Manual Option Instead, you discover all kinds of stuff that you do not even know what it is or what it does.
From now on, everyone needs to Use The Manual Option to put a stop to this.
Note that these programs can also change browser/computer settings.
