RE: Malware from KittyCatS Website?
It could easily have been the attempt to watch the Kentucky Derby video.

It is much safer to have Firestorm use your normal browser when it opens webpages, such as those from the Cattery dock. I do that a lot, as well as just having the KC Forums, etc. bookmarked in my normal browser, and haven't had an issues.

In Firestorm:
Under Network & Cache, click the radio button to use your own browser, and it should use your normal browser... whichever one is set up as default.

Also, regarding the media, under Sound & Media, make sure you unclick (disable) all four of the Autoplay settings and click to enable the filters.


FYI - my girl says one common trick within ANY browser is for something on the webpage to tell you that you need to use a plug-in to view a video, then when you click to install it, you download and install Malware. Some of these requests are legit, but just be very careful when you're asked to install or give access to anything.
