How can I stop orange page popping up from "firefox patch js"?
I'm on Yahoo and a orange page covers the whole screen and reads that it is a "firefox patch js." How do I stop this? Thanks for your help.

Hi !
Good for you be on the alert ! This is a fake !
Firefox will always update from within the browser and not from a random webpage.
Scammers have been using this tactic, trying to get users to download and infect their computer.
Hard to get rid off, as they will change their URL on a daily basis.
You could consider an ad-blocking add-on like :
