disable web console
I enabled web console for firefox and gave me a warning message saying hackers can access my information etc. i didnt pay any attention to this warning and enabled it , now i am getting pop ups every 4 hours or so. i know for a fact its because i enabled the web console ... ive never had a pop up ever on this mac in 3 years until today. is there any way to lock or disable web console or restrict others from using it

I am not sure it will be enough, but try this:
- Type about:config in the address bar and enter
- Accept the warning
- Type devtools.browserconsole in the search box
- Check that any line is not bold (you should have 19 lines).
- If one line is bold, double-click on it to inverse the value
- Close the about:config tab
Can you attach a screenshot?

- Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum size of 1 MB

As far as I know, the built-in consoles (web console in the tab, browser console in a separate window) do not give that warning when you just use them normally because in fact websites can't see what you do in those consoles.
Is there a new add-on called Web Console that you installed, or does one of your extensions have such a feature?
