It seems to be easy to steal passwords stored in Firefox browser

Making moves

I did something foolish by installing a crack for a software (DXO PureRaw) from an uploader known as OnyHash on 1337x torrent site. I was aware of what I was doing and I knew Windows 11 would be compromised but since I didn't use this system for banking etc. I thought of giving it a try. After I ran the crack, Firefox immediately closed. Soon I began to receive message from Gmail, Steam, Instagram, Facebook, X, Reddit, LinkedIn and a lot of other social media and other sites that my password was being changed or another email was being added to my account.

This means that all my passwords from stored in Firefox's password manager was compromised. I wish that Firefox could improve the security of its password manager. I've almost stopped using Firefox after this incident and now use Chrome along with adblockers and and tracker blockers.
