Since a week ago, I cannot log into my accounts on Hostgator and Wise. The Hostgator is somehow compromised, likely thanks to the Firefox errors, and mu account ID does not exist, while my email account does (not the same). The result is that I cannot login on Chrome or Edge either. They are working on it. For Wise, it is very very strange. I can login with no problem on Edge and on Chrome. But on Firefox, after I put in my email and password and click LOGIN, nothing happens. Any ideas anyone?

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!

Hi! I have a question about the syncing/history with FireFox. So for some context, I have two laptops, a personal laptop and a school/work laptop. I use the same FireFox account on both of them for convenience, however, I don't want the things from my personal laptop (ex. social media) to show up as recommended when I search for things in a tab on my work laptop. I already turned off the related sync settings, but I think since I synced my history before I turned them off, the websites from my main laptop are still showing up. My main question is- would I be able to clear my history on my work laptop without deleting the cookies/usage information from my main laptop (as I know this would log me out)? Or is my best bet to make a different FireFox account for my work laptop?

Thanks!

I've been able to change some of the Tooltips in my Firefox, but there are still that I can't edit. I've not been successful on Thunderbird at all. Using this in my Firefox's `userCrome.css`:

` tooltip {

   padding:          .5rem 1rem !important;
   color:            var(--light0) !important;
   background-color: var(--dark0) !important;
   border-color:     var(--neutral-orange) !important;
 }

` The "Show your Bookmark", "Open a new Tab", "Back/Forward", "Reload", all of my bookmark websites work. The "Home", "Open application Menu" and "Extensions" still show a black bg w/white text. Switching to a light theme shows the white bg w/black text, so it's a theme issue and not a Operating System (Win 10) thing.

I can't seem to get any of my custom Tooltip colors to show up in Thunderbird.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi there,

I'm new here so please bear with me if I've posted in the wrong place or have missed something obvious.

I running Windows 10, fully updated, on a laptop. I have been using Firefox browser now for many years, suits my needs and avoid's using Goolges Chrome. My Firefox was updated a in the last few days and it shows as up to date on Version 129.0.1 64bit.

I noticed late last night that when opening a fresh window and enter a search term in either the address bar or the Google search bar, my usual choice of search engine, I hit return and nothing happens. Any text I've input disappears totally. Not at all sure what's going on but have found that if I open a new private window Firefow will act as I'd expect without any issues.

I have two other browsers on my laptop, Edge and also Avast's own offering which both work as expected when I enter a search term. Have never experienced this before with the exception of years ago when malware protection wasn't great. It almost seems as though something is just stopping Firefox from searching anything I enter. I can use the bookmarks just fine and then everything works as usual.

Yesterday I thought that maybe following the new windows culmulative updates I was offered and apparently installed just fine, that I needed to restart which a tried and I thought it had cured the issue. Seems that it hasn't and still having the same issue.

Any idea's or thought's on what the cause of this is?

So today I was using firefox for work with multiple tabs open, I try to open a new tab and I get this message " Restart to keep using firefox"

I have updates set to "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" And the browser was fully updated to the newest update apart from this newest one?

Every time I try to open a new tab I keep getting this message mean I was unable to save my work and lost multiple tabs ?


Can someone explain this ?
