Why does Firefox say my website is unsafe, when in fact it's not?
Other web browsers such as Chrome, Edge and Opera (all for Windows) as well as Safari (for iOS), says my website is safe, because it is. Of course, I have tested it on a couple of test sites and it scores a perfect 100% on safety. Just not in Firefox. As an amateur web designer it puzzles me quite a lot why this is. Please help me if you can!
Happy New Year!
I also have the same question because I’ve noticed situations where Firefox displays a security warning for a website even though the same site loads normally in Chrome, Edge, Opera, and Safari. It can be particularly confusing when external security checks don’t report anything suspicious and the website appears to have a valid HTTPS certificate and no obvious malware. I’m also wondering whether Firefox uses a separate reputation or phishing/malware detection system that could produce a warning even when other browsers consider the site safe.
I’d be interested to know what the best way is to determine exactly why Firefox is flagging the site rather than simply assuming there is something wrong with the website itself. Is there a specific Firefox page, diagnostic tool, certificate check, or security report that can show what triggered the warning? If anyone has dealt with this before, I’d appreciate any advice on how to identify the cause and request a review or correction if the warning is genuinely a false positive.
