Box opened up on the start up of computer asking if I wanted to block certain website that may be malicious. I picked yes to block then realized this was the real Firefox site. How do I get back my Firefox?

Thank you Scribe. I looked into what my firewall was allowing and found the blocked FF. I'm back up and running.

Hi, not quite sure what you are referring to. You seem to be using Firefox, so it may have been Firefox's Phishing and Malware Protection - How does built-in Phishing and Malware Protection work?

If it appeared before starting Firefox, it may be a message from your PC's anti-virus, so you would need to look at its blocking settings.

If none of the above, can you try to be more specific, or provide a screenshot. If you need help to create a screenshot, please see How do I create a screenshot of my problem?

Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the Browse... button below the Post your reply box. This will help us to visualize the problem.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
