Gmail log in just keeps refreshing password page
FF 38.0.1, when try to sign into gmail the password page just keeps reloading, same user/pass works 100% in safari. OSX 10.9.5
worked 100% till a few days ago, believe it was last update then, if I remember correctly I set security from low to med.

That could be a problem with an extension like Blur that blocks privacy related data. You should always keep in mind that using extensions that block content can block more than you realize.
