wa4chq Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 It wasn't really a pop up but I don't know what else to call it...a rap on my knuckles maybe. I was doing what I normally do, have two computers running and searching with both. I have the laptop setup on my kitchen island and at the same time the pc in the hamshack is on and firefox running. Anyway, what happened was I was watching a Youtube vid on the lappy. All is good. At the same time as I was watching/listening to "Joanne Shaw Taylor" I was also perusing the internet. I had a few tabs opened....like I always do. I had got up and gone to shack and while there, I did a search....went back out to the island and after awhile, I tried searching something with Firefox and a warning or notice popped up saying something about "scraping", they noticed strange things happening from my secure bunker...I didn't write it down or take a screenshot but I no longer could do any searches. So I switched over to Seamonkey and all was good. Anyway, I finished watching Joanne Taylor Shaw (btw, a really fine musician) and kinda forgot about Firefox but decided to try it again a few minutes ago and all is like nothing ever happened. WTF? I've never had this happen....very weird. Have a great weekend all.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.T. Eric Layton Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 I haven't the faintest clue what was going on with your Firefox. Not much help from me, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My way of 'splainin' it kinda sucks. It wasn't a Linux kinda question but I was using Linux, so I reckon it counts. I've never had that happen before...I wish I had taken a screen shot. As I remember, they said something about too many tabs open on different machines...I think they mentioned something about a VPN, like was I using one.... And last night, I saw strange lights hovering over my house....what gives? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh... the strange lights are nothing to worry about. It's either too much natural herbal remedies and ethanol, or... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wa4chq Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) BTW....still enjoying me some Joanne Shaw Taylor. Side note. I was watching a YT vid...it was either Samantha Fish of JST...but hanging up in the background along with other advertisers was one for Red Hat.....now, can't say I look for that sh*te, but that is a first for me seeing any form of advertisement for Linux.
