I can't access two websites (both https) - Chase and Fisher Scientific - every time I try to load them I get a connection was reset error message. I have tried clearing the cookies and cache. Any ideas?

This seems to be caused by browser sniffing that isn't working properly and changing the user agent for those sites to Firefox/19 seems to work.

You can create a new String pref on the about:config page via the right-click context menu.

It certainly worked for chase which was the important part. Thank you!
