Hi. I have an email purporting to be from Microsoft telling me that I will have access problems with Thunderbird from September onwards. Something to do with authentification. Assuming it is genuine (is it?) I have no idea what to do. It gives 'instructions' which are incomprehensible to me. I dont even know why this link is to Mozilla rather than thunderbird. I don't want to loose Thunderbird's calendar or stored files let alone the ease of access I currently enjoy. I need someone kind and patient to tell this novice how to move forward in a pedantic, non-terminology way who is happy to assume I know nothing! Please help! Brian

Webpages don't open on Firefox and a link is clicked (for example, a link in an email). This problem does not happen when using another browser. I followed the advice given to someone who had the same problem. Switching to "No proxy" as suggested did not correct the problem. The advice was from zeroknight and is pasted below: zeroknight 12/1/23, 1:28 AM more options The browser settings are in the menu that looks like three horizontal bars (≡). From there, go into Connection Settings and change "Use system proxy settings" to "No proxy".

Refreshing Firefox did not correct the problem

I have been trying for a house but won't open, so I tried another Browser and the Email account opened first time. What have I done work or what can I do to fix. Firefox is my #1 Browser. Email removed for privacy

I'm receiving multiple notifications every day on my android phone (Google Pixel 7a), purporting to be from firefox, warning me about things like having been hacked, checking my antivirus and many more. This started suddenly, a couple of days ago.

I use firefox as my browser both on android and my pc, as I like the mozilla ethos.

All the messages have the firefox logo at the top. All the messages have the same url: na.check-tl-ver-116-3.com

I have attached a screenshot.

Could someone please help me: 1. work out whether these are a scam 2. stop them

Many thanks

Hi

When I select the "History" option it doesn't go any further. The "Bookmarks" and "Downloads" options are working as normal. Th e problem has been for 24 hours.

Thanks Gareth

I never use tabs, so dunno when this invaded my browser but all of a sudden there's a list of tabs going from left to right - starting with the website I am on (e g this one - ``Get Support - Mozilla Support).

I do not need a 3/4 inch bar telling me TWICE what I can see ONCE already on the address bar. I have researched Firefox Support for a week now and things like the ``chromecss file have nothing to do with it and neither solve the problem no r escalate to somebody who can.

Hi.

Why every time i run thunderbird and if i leave it open too often it bring me the error message for all hotmail/outlook mail accounts i have???

What the heck is happening and how i can solve this?

Hi,

just for understanding:

Why can the Firefox source code (view-source) of a website be nearly three times the size compared with Chrome/Opera or when I save the Firefox source code marked and copied and then pasted and saved via an editor?

Example: Firefox 546,6 KiB Chrome/Opera 204,3 KiB via Editor 204,3 KiB (marked and copied Firefox source code)

Best

I live in the UK and recently when going to the BBC.co.uk I get the website as BBC.com after a few seconds. I know that I usually see .com when overseas and this is normal. Why has this started happening while I am still in the United Kingdom?

I first mentioned this in r/Firefox, and was asked to re-post here.

My FF just updated to 127.0.1 even though I have "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" and told it to wait. This was on a Windows 11 box. Everything seemed fine, but then one of my tabs crashed. I selected the reload tab option, at which point it informed me it could not load the tab because a background update had happened and I was now required to restart Firefox.

I'm not certain what version of FF I was on, I believe it was either 126 or 126.0.1.

Now, to be completely fair, I cannot with 100% certainty say that I clicked on the update later option. That said, as I _did not want to update then_, and I have put off the update before, it seems unlikely I would have made the mistake, but I wasn't recording everything I did so I can't play it back and prove it. My initial reaction was to associate it with the tab crashing somehow, as everything was working as expected right up until that moment.

Thanks
