I had thought the warning shows up when some of the browser's default settings |
18 |
have been changed, or additional TLS Certificates have been loaded. If you go |

to 'about:policies' you'll see anything changed there. In mine FF has |
20 |
DisableAppUpdate, because I manage this via portage and don't need FF to |
21 |
notify me, or even worse try to update itself. |
