Not a question, a statement ----------- I am 67 years old and been playing World of Tanks since their beginning. I was finally having a game in which I would get 10+ kills (9 down and taking aim on a wounded Rudy with my Scorpion G) when a white box appeared in the middle of the screen stating Firefox was updating??? I panicked, got it down and the whole screen went to your download and WOT was reduced. As a result, I got killed while off screen. At my age, I may never have that opportunity again. I immediately X-ed out of WOT, went to "Add or remove programs" and Firefox is gone FOREVER. I normally use Firefox but I have Chrome - Edge - MSN Premium and Explorer, don't need Firefox. Even Trend Micro nor Malwarebytes is that rude. Now I will inform all who will read what happened. Firefox should send notice - email or something that an update is available so we can do it at OUR LEISURE not yours. Goodbye, good riddance.

hello, this is not the way a firefox update works - what you are describing is a fake/malicious advertisement: I found a fake Firefox update
