Legitimate or No?

Post by BobH »

I received this screen in Fx Q today:
critical ud.GIF
It came from this source: https://aeri6magazine-hd.net/5567072797 ... 53223.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.

The screen came up unbidden.

Checking Help>About shows my app is up to date.

The action panel presented says that it has something to do with javascript which I don't trust.

Is this legitimate or malware?

I would ignore it. Firefox will update itself if necessary.
Best wishes,
