Firefox and the problems with cookies from host ec2-35-169-248-108.compute-1.amazonaws

[Firefox User]

This question has been posted in the firefox support at https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1266489 The host // LINK DELETED BY MODERATION // keeps making creating cookies on my computer and deleting them on every creation of new tab and closure of the same. I cannot find anything infected on my computer even when scanned in an offline mode ie booted with a rescue disk with multiple anti viruses like Kaspersky, Comodo, Eset and ClamAV rescue disks. Even after upgrading the firefox from 67.0.3 to 68.0.1 with the lastest addons and plugins this behavior has not changed. Cannot find what is wrong in the Windows Installation and there is no malware detected in the in the system by any of the above anti viruses. What is the correct was to get rid of this supposed "malware" ? any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance for your time and effort.

If Kaspersky doesn't detect any infected object then it looks like your system is clean. Please don't post suspicious links on this Forum.

[Firefox User]

Kaspersky doesn't detect any infected object but the link mentioned above still is active ie the cookies are being still deleted by cookie auto delete any suggestions what more i can do ?

[Berny]

I don't think that Kaspersky is involved in your problem. Also please see https://support.kaspersky.com/common/windows/2843

[Firefox User]

the cookies are being consistently being deleted on every firefox tab close, so it is indeed a serious matter as someone is watching all the web activity on the computer

Hello Firefox User, May I ask why:

1. Kaspersky Protection extension Private Browsing
2. Firefox Cookies and Site Data - Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed
3. Browser Privacy - Content Blocking

are not being used? --- 4⃣ Log data collated in (original) .pdf, save as a text file, upload please? 5⃣ Cookie auto delete - log, upload please? Thanks.

[Firefox User]

1. Kaspersky Protection extension Private Browsing - Extension is disabled because Kaspersky Free was crashing every now and then to rule out the firefox being the cause we had disabled it
2. Firefox Cookies and Site Data - Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed - Another thing to rule the cause - found out that it does not affect anything
3. Browser Privacy - Content Blocking - Another thing to totally rule out Firefox being the cause of crashes in Kaspersky Free

Log data collated in (original) .pdf, save as a text file, upload please? Yes reproduced below whcih is the same as Cookie AutoDelete Log //Mod edit: deleted lots of unwanted links. Please post text, or post disabled links.

Firefox User, Open Firefox to "blank" home page, exit Firefox immediately, (no browsing), upload CookieAutoDelete log (as a text file) please?

[Firefox User]
