Text it is then from now on I guess and I’m a security only updater for Windows 7 and IE 11. So cut and paste interoperability still is not full and complete with Firefox/Other Browsers and whatever software classes/methods(RichTextBox Class) gets called on down the software stack in Windows via any Third Party CMS packages.

I’m liking Firefox compared to IE11 for most things on the web but I really do not care for DuckDuckGo’s constant nagging about their DuckDuckGo brand Firefox security Plug-ins/Extensions every few times that I load/return to DuckDuckGo’s search page. That’s excessive nagging on DuckDuckGo’s part and maybe that will drive more business away if it keeps up the way its been going.

Firefox needs to just by default block all popups as standard practice with no exceptions as one of the web pages that I visit was setting of my security software’s klaxons at every visit until I went into Firefox’s About:Config and erased some strings related to permissible kinds of allowed by Firefox Popups(And No Popups are good popups). Popups and Even HTML5 players have been setting off my Security Software a whole lot lately.

Forcing a Default Search provider is maybe something that should not be allowed in any browser and I’d rather just have my Browser’s bookmark toolbar set up with a few search engines of my choosing and really I do not want my browser’s address bar blabbing any of my open local file(File Names/etc.) in the browser’s UI blabbed out to some default search provider that’s forced on me by a default search provider requirement in IE11/Firefox/Other Browsers. And even Though I have, in Firefox, chosen a separate search bar for searching instead of the using the address bar for searches, Firefox still want’s to port everything that I type into the address bar over to the default search provider! So why the need to even have offered a separate search bar for searching in Firefox if the address bar is still going have it’s contents sent to search provider as well. And any local file content opened via the browser has that file’s directory/file structure listed in the browser’s address bar as well, so that’s not very privacy oriented of most browser makers.

I think that it’s about time for the security software to start flagging any website if that website is allowing its ad partners to serve up virus/other security related download/redirect attempts whereas currently my antivirus/firewall software only flags the originating IP address that was blocked for whatever ad partner is pushing out the infected package. So that’s maybe not wise as any antivirus/firewall software should flag the web page’s IP address also and blocking access to that web page until the website’s owner/owners take notice and contacts their ad partners to fix the issue.

There are a few websites that I have been visiting that have had any Right Mouse click/open in a new Browser tab’s UI interaction taken over and pointing to some redirected IP address(Virus Download Attempts) for over a year now and because my antivirus/firewall software is only flagging the redirected IP address and not that webpage’s IP address also and maybe the website’s owner is not aware of the issue. Website owners tend to fix any security issues on their websites(Mostly Ad partner related) if their website starts getting blocked by the antivirus/firewall software to the point of that website’s loosing those all important page hit rates and adsense/whatever revenues.
