Running v79, 64 bit

As stupid as it sounds, my problem is that when i click the links from the PCH emails i get, Firefox opens a new tab, but nothing appears within it. This behavior began about a month ago, give or take a week or two.

I can copy & paste the link into Edge and it opens without a problem, but i am not interested in switching to Edge.

As to my interest in PCH, i find it an enjoyable mindless diversion in my day being pretty well glued to these computer screens, kind of a forced break and clearing of the mind.

Anyone know what i might tweak so i can have my periods of being a mindless idiot?

Thank-You!

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?

While you are in safe mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.

Clearing all cookies and cache did the trick, Thank-You!!!

Now i can just be embarrassed from letting the world know i click the PCH link...

Glad to help. Safe Surfing.
