Windows 8 has taken a dislike to Firefox
Been happily working away doing some listing research on Firefox when suddenly a Windows message box popped saying that Windows had blocked Firefox as a suspicious app !
Is it worthwhile trying to do a system restore to get back to where I was about 45 mins. ago?
Using Chrome - which I don't care for - to post this.
p.s Firefox has been a bit 'jumpy' since last update.

I'm using W-7 . This has happened to me today for the 1st time.
I just clicked on the accept dialog box and it went on to load..

The trouble started when Firefox updated to the latest version v.36 - I gather it's caused problems worldwide. [Forgotten it was on automatic update]
I re-installed Firefox v.351, but lost all my bookmarks in the process but I'd the foresight to transfer them to Chrome beforehand which I'm now using until I get things sorted out.
Anyone know how to transfer bookmarks from Chrome to Firefox? :)
