On FireFox v115, on Mac system High Sierra, 10.13.6. Autoplay setting will not let me remove this 'about:welcome^privateBrowsingld=1' or this 'about:welcome' no matter how many times I try. The version on my Mac laptop,129, does not have this or anything. What is this?

I did not set up a password to view my passwords now I can't get out my passwords. I'm the only one who has access to the computer so there is no need for this "added security", more added annoyance. I've never had to have a password before to look up a password on one of my accounts but now I'm stuck with this function turned on. I think they must have forced it on me in a resent update because I just looked at my passwords last week. Yes, I know there is a thing to reset my passwords in Thunderbird and hopefully let me turn this silly requirement off. But I've tried that and it did nothing at all.

I am not part of an organization. Despite that, my browser is being controlled by an organization and I cannot control how my browser operates. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox several times to try to eliminate this issue and it keeps returning. There seems to be a certificate associated with this problem. "ImportEnterpriseRoots" How do I get rid of this problem permanently?

Thunderbird scam detection

Dear,

I get a daily mail from my solar panel (convertor) supplier with my daily (solar) energy production profile. This mail gets 'labeled' as a potential scam by Thunderbird systematically. I'm 100% confident these mails are not scams...

Of course, I could just uncheck the scam detection flag in the settings, but I do appreciate the extra protection this detection offers!

Your site says litteraly: "Why does Thunderbird tell me that a legitimate message is a scam? Thunderbird's detection algorithm isn't perfect and, unlike its spam filter, does not learn or adapt based on your email flags. ..."

Could the detection algorithm not be changed, so that it learns? Or so that, if the user has unflagged mails, it no longer flags similar (almost identical) mails?

Thanks (wholehartedly!) for Thunderbird. And for your attention, of course... Marc Claes

Using 115.10.1 (32-bit), Windows 11.

I get a lot of SPAM. Much is filtered out upstream (via a Barracuda system supplied by my ISP) More (but less effectively) by Thunderbird. But some (too much) still gets through.

My question - most of the time I can recognize it's SPAM by only looking at headers - subject, and correspondent (sender). I have no need to check the email content.

But to junk the email I need to select it, which causes the email content to appear by the built in browser in TB.

Not an expert, but this seems like an unnecessary security risk, that gives the email content (and any included code) time to do something. Am I overthinking this? Is there a way to mark an email junk without selecting it?

thx,

Recently, as in the last two days, when I am in the process of filling in forms online, Firefox auto-fill offers me the choice of my phone number and a phone number that is unknown to me. I am 100% certain that I never erroneously entered this second number when filling in a previous form. The number bears no resemblance to my own. How the number came to be in Firefox auto-fill is a mystery to me. I used Canada 411 reverse look-up to check the number and discovered that it is a valid phone number belonging to a person I do not know and have never had any contact with. My question, then, is how did his phone number end up in Firefox on my computer? Is it possible I have been hacked?
