Firefox started blocking Elctronics Distributer www.mouser.com that I need to access
Within the past week (beginning of Novermber 2026) firefix has started blocking my access to an electronics component distributer that I have used for well over 20 years. www.mouser.com
I need to get to the site to order some parts but cannot get there. Microsoft's Edge browser gets to the site without a problem but in firefox, I get only the following:
Quote: The connection was reset
Firefox can’t connect to the server at www.mouser.com What can you do about it?
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection. If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.
End-Quote
Even though the Edge browser opens it, I prefer not to use Edge due to it's intrusive nature.
This has only started happening this week. I updated firefox but I still can't access www.mouser.com.
So far, this is the ONLY site I have been unable to get to. And again, this behavior started just in this past week.
Why is firefox blocking my access to a legitimate business?

I thought I had checked for typos before posting but I see I missed several.
I saw an article about private browsing and tried that. Firefox had no problem going mouser's site in private mode. Regular browser mode still won't get there, but at least I can now order my parts without resorting to Edge.
I would still love to know what happened that keeps Firefox from showing www.mouser.com
