Hi,

I am running firefox 87.0 (64-bit) on Windows and now when I try a page the 99% of the time firefox is not able to open those pages because security concerns or just it hangs, if I try same page in other browsers (Edge, Chorome, etc) those pages work fine. I tried everything in the firefox configuration until disable all protections but behavior is the same, is almost impossible to work with firefox now, it was my preferred browser but due to all the wrong behavior I am planning to uninstall it from all my computers/laptops.

For example, if I try to open the page https://www.pgatour.com/competition/2021/wgc-dell-technologies-match-play/tourcast.html#/hole-view?match=64&round=2&cid=185&seqHole=2&hole=2&pid=48822 , it hangs and shows a blank page, if I open the same page in other browsers page works fine.

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?
