URL:FakeShop britishminers on Firefox
« on: April 16, 2021, 11:47:02 AM »
Hello

Whenever I open Firefox (87.0) I get a double threat secured warning.

"We've safely aborted connection on britishminers.com because it was infected with URL:FakeShop"

I have never been to that website, nor am I trying to.
The warning pops up on different websites (youtube, Facebook, etc), but inconsistently so I don't think it's the website's fault.

First thing to try. In Firefox>Options>Privacy &Security>Cookies and Site Data then hit Clear Data.

If you have Firefox extensions, then removing them would be next thing I would try.
