I am running Firefox 129.0.2 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 20.04.4

Recently, I have been browsing a StackExchange site and hit the back button of the browser several times (still remaining on StackExchange). I then realized that upon the last button click, Firefox downloaded a weird HTML file called something like ha71ksd.htm. The file was empty (0KB) and when uploading it to VirusTotal it showed me a completely different file there (probably since the hash of an empty file is always the same).

In any case, I am a bit worried that I might have been infected by a virus. Therefore, I'd like to at least reproduce what happened. I read in different places that it might have something to do with a wrong MIME type reported by a server prompting Firefox to download instead of displaying a file. But Stackoverflow having such a misconfiguration is also strange. I know that a 0KB file cannot contain anything malicious but the whole incident seemed highly suspicious and I need to find out what happened.

Any help or tips are appreciated!

I joined a couple facebook groups. Each offered a file tab with documents available for download.

I tried numerous times with firefox and it failed. Clicking the "Download" item on the ... menu caused the same files tab view and list to open in a new tab.

I hated to do it, but I dusted off M$ Internet Explorer, logged into FB and joined a group, clicked the Files tab, selected a file, clicked the 3 dots, menu popped up and I clicked "Download". Poof. The Save As popup appeared, the file was downloaded. Works as expected with IE.

Might there be a setting in FF that is blocking such downloads of PDF and .doc document files?

Cannot Edit Google Docs on Firefox Destop

For some reason I cannot type anything in Google Docs on the Firefox Desktop Browser. In fact, it seems like the browser doesn't recognize that I'm using Google Docs at all - in my attempts to see what was up I tried to bold a word to see what would happen, but the Ctrl + B shortcut opened the Firefox bookmarks tab instead. This is happening across all my Google Accounts, but only on Firefox and only in Docs - I can edit sheets and forms without issue, I can edit them all on my Android through the google apps, and I can edit them in another browser.

This is an issue that happened suddenly yesterday and I cannot think of anything that's caused it. I double checked that I had editing permissions on these docs, asked the people who owned them to remove me and re-add me but no luck. I have cleared cache and cookies, logged out and back, restarted the browser, and restarted my computer. Though I haven't changed anything with my extensions recently, I tried deactivating and reactivating everything I had. None of this caused any difference and I still cannot edit. I've also tried a user-agent switcher to see if that could help, but no dice. It really does seem like the issue is firefox not recognizing Google Docs is Google Docs and I'm not sure what the fix for that would be. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
