When I post SlideShare file embed code to a Website, the paging does not function in Firefox. Ideas how to fix?

Here is the embed code: 

<iframe src="//www.slideshare.net/slideshow/embed_code/key/Lyy0wJWOyBILYS" width="595" height="485" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" style="border:1px solid #CCC; border-width:1px; margin-bottom:5px; max-width: 100%;" allowfullscreen> </iframe> <div style="margin-bottom:5px"> <strong> <a href="//www.slideshare.net/infoDiagram/get-creative-sketchnoting-your-presentation" title="Get Creative Sketchnoting Your Presentation" target="_blank">Get Creative Sketchnoting Your Presentation</a> </strong> from <strong><a href="//www.slideshare.net/infoDiagram" target="_blank">Peter Zvirinsky</a></strong> </div>

BTW, it plays fine from the Source: http://www.slideshare.net/infoDiagram/get-creative-sketchnoting-your-presentation

I have disabled pluging, run FF in safe mode, even deactivated my McAfee Total Protection.

It works fine in Edge, Chrome and Safari.

I am using Firefox 46.0.1 on a Windows 10 OS.

I will appreciate your help.

Thanks to everyone who offered help. Here's what I discovered today: It looks like the offending program feature is McAfee Safe Search.

After refreshing Firefox, the embed code worked to allow navigation within the Slideshare file as embedded.

Then, I reactivated Safe Search, and it stopped working.

So, I refreshed Firefox again (at the troubleshooting level) and will simply not activate Safe Search. I'm in a catch with this vulnerability but it seems to solve the problem.

Could you give a link to the page where you embedded the frame? That will be easier to examine (in other words, I won't need to create a new web page to test the frame).

Works for me in Firefox with the HTTP or HTTPS protocol. It doesn't work with "//" only if I use the data URI.

Since other viewers of your site may have the same problem, you may want to place a link to the show on SlideShare under the frame as a backup for those users.
