Ebay problems in Firefox

more options

The last couple of days Ebay shows only text files, nothing else. Have cleared Cache & Cookies, turned of Adblock but nothing helps. In Chrome and Edge, eBay are fine.....(But I am Firefox fan, and want to use Firefox)

What is wrong, and how do I fix this?

Hi Lassenet, some Firefox 79 users have reported that the Enhance Tracking Protection feature is causing this problem. This was determined by:

  • checking the left end of the address bar to see whether the shield was purplish, indicating something was blocked
  • clicking the shield and turning off Enhanced Tracking Protection for the site by clicking the "slider switch" button

After that, the page should reload, and you can bypass the cache by holding down the Shift key when using the Reload button on the toolbar.

Any difference?
