Cant open messages on eBay

For the last week, I haven't been able to open any of the messages on eBay using Firefox on my computer, two different accounts. Until then it worked fine. Now I can only do this on my phone, via eBay app. No problem with Microsoft Edge on my computer either - works properly. Updated Firefox, cleared cache, restarted - nothing helps. Nothing happens when I click on the message, as if the link does not exist, even though the cursor changes when hovering over. Very annoying

Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What is/are the exact error message(s) ?


Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

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.
