receiving pop ups stating virus attack from mozilla and via cq5g6mojubcc7385jauo.deviceconnectnetwork and cant make them go away
Started receiving pop ups stating virus attack from Mozilla and via cq5g6mojubcc7385jauo.deviceconnectnetwork from Mozilla showing McAffee, Critical Virus Alert, Virus attack. Receive 3 at time and I can't see the right side of my scree and I need to. Is this malware and if so how do I remove it fast? Thank you.

Also, I forgot to ask, I was wondering if I should disable the notifications from cq5g6mohubcc7385jauo.deviceconnectnetwork as well. This via cq5g6mohubcc7385jauo.deviceconnectnetwork has been corrected as I accidentally typed a j instead of the h in my first post. My Norton Virus protection has not detected any viruses threats after I ran a scan. Thank you. I am not very tech savy and appreciate any help.

This sounds like Web Push Notifications from one or more websites you interacted with. These McAfee virus attacks popups are not due to malware and are fake alerts from the site(s).
See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/push-notifications-firefox#w_how-do-i-revoke-web-push-permissions-for-a-specific-site on how to revoke Web Push permissions for a specific site.
Btw the web browser name is Mozilla Firefox or Firefox for short as you are referring to the browser as Mozilla.

Worked great James, thank you again.
You can check if you have a Push permission for suspect domain(s) like shown at the bottom of the message and revoke this permission. See "How do I revoke Web Push permissions for a specific site?":
Thank you very much cor-el!
