This problem has to do with the icons in the Firefox tabs.

I keep multiple tabs open in my browser. Each tab has an icon and associated text. For some reason today the icons started changing from the original icons provided by the website to a cherry with on leaf. As long as I leave a tab alone the cherry & leaf are not there. But as soon as I update (refresh) the webpage the cherry replaces the original icon. Did I inadvertently set some option or did I catch a virus?

Thanks

Appears as if my VPN provider had a problem. Once they fixed their problem the issue went away.

Thanks.

hello, maybe an addon is interfering here - can you try launching firefox in safe mode once and see if the problem is occurring there too? Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems
