Red Carrot

Ever see this at the bottom of your Firefox Browser? I never did either until a friend sent me a desparate message asking for help. This is a more common bug in Firefox than they let on.

Usually it is a buggy or broken firefox extension. Mozilla recommends to remove extensions from the browser until the red carrot disappears.

You can check this list from mozilla (problematic extensions) to see if you have any known conflicts before you begin removing extensions willy-nilly.

Also, there is a particular spyware file that can cause this problem. If you have this file: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\chrome\m3ffxtbr.manifest delete it and restart firefox.

That is about it. You can visit Mozilla’s site to get the full article on this weird bug.
