watch out for firefox they do not protect your privacy & if you have that protection they disable it. maybe firefox will respond.

Hi

Thank you for your query.

AVG works fine with Firefox, but as with other anti-malware packages, the core engine comes bundled with other toolbars and non core functionality. Often they provide no greater protection that functionality built into the browser.

Google services will often ask for permission to do something, nothing wrong with this and it is a good thing theta they ask(!). You can simply decline these requests. Mozilla and Firefox have to be very careful to thread a line between protecting users (the priority) which at the same time doing this in such a way that the web experience is not so crippled that you are unable to use it.

I hope this helps answer your concerns.

Hi

At Mozilla, we care greatly for users privacy, indeed we have done much pioneering work in this regard leading to such features in Firefox such as Tracking Protection.

Please can you clarify your question with information around what happened, what you were trying to achieve and any error messages that were displayed so that we can best provide a solution for you.

firefox updated their browser new version &disabled my privacy protection from avg saying it was incompatible, simultaneously firefox alsoreceived a request from google internet securityasking for tracking info for me.this request was unwarranted & violated my right to privacy.Meanwhile my privacy has been violated everybody has the info to void my privacy & i'm stuck with your inferior privacy instead of avg's. The damage has already been done if i could put avg privacy back on, everyone already has the info they need to make it useless. I had always used firefox preferring to others. this is no longer the case,& i am actively for a replacement.

i had never encountered any of the problems you write about, I had no problems with either the browser or my antivirus w/privacy protection. until firefox disabled my privacy protection,
