Hi, I'm trying to figure out Why my HP Laptop isn't working right. I'm Not able to login to my Foxnews.com Profile anymore for the past several Days & Today I've been in Chats w/Microsoft and they didn't fix anything either. I've also had Over $ xxxx from my Bank Account so, I'm trying to search Everything. I've tried using Internet Explorer & that didn't work either (Actually even Worse than Microsoft Edge that I Usually use). I can also be reached by cell at: [removed] or [removed]. Plz Help if you can? Thanks SOOO MUCH!

So, I just checked/right clicked & viewed my "Inspect Element" View Source... & I scrolled & found a few links to Mozilla for some reason & a Bunch of Code stuff. Here are a couple of the Links I found (I Don't even have Mozilla on my Laptop so that's Why I'm Super Confused about this now too. I'm Not Blaming Mozilla for Anything, Simply trying to figure out what happened to my Laptop & Why I Can't Login Completely to foxnews anymore lately???

So, here is a little more of what I copied & Pasted from my Element/Script Block page or whatever you call it. I Hope this Helps??? I Don't know what else to do at this point. I've been using Edge w/Adguard for a Long time now with No Problems until a few Days ago. I also do Not use Chrome but, I Do have it Installed on my Laptop. But, Not Mozilla. I used to before but, Microsoft told me I should use Edge to Work the Best w/my Windows 10 Pro Office...

Hi ConcreteCowboy, the Mozilla Developer Network site provides information to web developers that can work in many different browsers. I don't know why someone kept that link in there, but perhaps they planned to refer to it later. Also, the source code of Firefox is provided to the public under an open source license, so other programs are able to copy and use it for free. I don't know if that explains the files you found, but perhaps it does.

We have a support article that suggests free cleaning tools you might want to use if you suspect your system is compromised. See: Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware.

Otherwise, since you do not have Firefox, I think this probably is beyond the scope of this forum.

Hi Jscher2000, I Really Appreciate your Quick Reply however, I'm afraid it does Not Answer my Question Completely. I Don't know Why Anyone would be refrencing Mozilla website links in Code in my Element Source Page. So, I guess I'll keep Searching for Answers as to why Anyone used a few Mozilla Links and Chrome Links as well when I Don't use Either of those. Thanks Again!

When you say it is your Element Source page, I think you mean it is a web page someone else wrote that you are viewing. So really, it's a question for them as to why they included that in the page.

Well, I can kind of see what you're saying there but, I guess I just Still Don't Understand why it is Still on there when I click on "Debug Just My Code"? Everything is Still there & Nothing has changed from just "My Code" & All other... besides, I did Not write any Codes so I don't know...?

Sorry, I don't use Edge so I don't know what you see in "My Code".

No problem. Thanks anyway for trying
