Even after waiting for 10 minutes this " irctc.co.in " website didnt load at all , while the same opened in Chrome within a few seconds.

I have encountered this problem with Firefox a few times previously also.

Make sure you are not blocking content.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?


One issue that seems more common lately is Firefox's Tracking Protection feature. When it is blocking content in a page, a shield icon will appear at the left end of the address bar next to the padlock icon. This article has more info on managing this feature: Tracking Protection {web link}

While all other websites open fine with Firefox this ( irctc.co.in) seems to have some issue. Did you try to access this site using Firefox ?
