Now getting ACCESS DENIED

Firefox just updated, now getting ACCESS DENIED at common sites, Home Depot, JC Penney, American Airlines, United Airlines and I don't know how many more.

How do I fix this or go back to previous versions of Firefox?

Or just move to Google?

Hi there, for Home Depot and JC Penney I can reproduce but I see the same issue on safari and chrome. That means there is something wrong with those websites, nothing to do with Firefox. For American Airlines, I can't reproduce, it works for me. Are you still getting that issue? And which website do you you?

I use windows 7 pro. Firefox calls it windows 7 Vista. 2 or 3 days ago I was at the AA Site, logged in doing some research on flights. I was also on the HD site.

I started the computer yesterday and when I went to open Firefox it did the typical, please wait while we update fire fox...

It says I'm on version 115... those sites I use often now are opening to the web site and the next click in the website says Access Denied.

I called HD and AA, they are saying it has to be my browser.. so I've now attempted to use several other sites... open the main window and go to log in and before the log in window opens I get the Denied access page.

I've kept this old computer because of some software I can't replace... I don't have a clue how to go backwards with my version of Firefox...

Of course I feel like I'm doomed, I honestly was so upset I shut the computer off and walked away but I assume any Site I use where I have to log in will keep me out.

Any thoughts will be appreciated

I live in France. Firefox, Edge. Screenshot 2, i used a vpn, with a location, at instant.

Well, now I'm really lost.....

I downloaded Microsoft Edge and tried to use that brought and have the same problem...

So this IS NOT a Mozilla Firefox issue....

Maybe my windows 7 pro?

Can't imagine it's a Starlink problem...

ANYONE with a suggestion??

Below, a test with User Agent Switcher.

Screenshot 1, Windows7. Screenshot 2, as far as i'm concerned, i installed Linux in dual-boot with Windows7.
