Since this morning, every time I open Firefox I get this at the top of my window: "Your Firefox Account meets your phone. They fall in love." and there's a link button that's titled "Make a match". Is this malware, hoax, spam or what? How do I get rid of it?

Hi

Thank you for your question. This is not malware but is just a hint about the Firefox Sync feature that allows you to take your bookmarks with you on a mobile device that has a mobile version of Firefox installed.

You can close the message by clicking the on the "x" if you wish.

I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into an alternative solution for you.
