Recommendations for Browser, Anti-Virus, and Ad Blocker (New Laptop)

Finally got tired of putting up with this ancient (8-9 YO) laptop and a new one is on it's way.

Reaching out to the vast CF knowledge and experience base to get input on recommended browsers, anti-virus, and ad-block stuff.

My old one had the default browser being Firefox. It has Norton which I've come to hate; pop-up warnings for this or that, that you can have them scan for, then if you want to pay extra they will remove them. Just feels too much like bloatware. Don't need pop-up commercials from my anti-virus, just something that works quietly in the background.

I was using AdBlock Plus.

TIA

PS: No recommendations from the Google-verse please.

Short Pants

A few years ago, short pants was a big deal. I saw several games where they penalized teams or players, for pants not covering the knee. As recent as 2021 I found articles on the subject and that officials were going to make it a point to enforce the rule, and seemed like there were articles from almost every year for a handful of years where they were emphasizing it.

Looking up the rules I have found no change to the rule that requires pants covering the knee. But I have noticed, there are a LOT of short pants this year, it may have been that way last year too, but I really have noticed it this year.

Did they change this rule that I cant find? Did they decide to not enforce it? I know it has been a hot button issue for some, I never understood why people want to wear short pants so bad, but some do.

McAfee Popup

I have not seen a pop-up in likely over five years. But this morning there it was McAfee "Your Computer is infected" from derastocytoldly.co.in.

Don't know the site of the attachment: Microsoft, Firefox. Bing/MSN, or my DuckDuckGo. Anyone with an idea on removing this pop-up...I do not subscribe to McAfee. Thanks.
