[QUOTE="Timtraveller, post: 1799492, member: 125706"] Hello, I've often browsed this forum for general clues and hints. Now during the past week or so, there's a small window that appears "ping!" in the right corner of Firefox 61.0.2 with some useless software to download, courtesy of "savefrom.net". Having read up on it, it can often be removed by looking up the Add-ons in Firefox, but there's no hint of it there on my browser. It seems I should install some sort of program to remove it, but haven't seen a free such for Mac yet. I think I may have received it when using some app to download a youtube video (that's how it often appears) but it's a bit surprising because downloading a video shouldn't require installing anything. I'm not sure in fact. Any ideas how to get rid of this savefrom.net thing? Thanks! PS. I use El Capitan 10.11.6. [/QUOTE]
