Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. I have followed your directions and nothing works. This only started happening today.

I have been watching www.ustream.tv/decoraheagles for months. I started using Firefox about a month ago. Early today, when I tried logging into the site, I got the message "Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete." I went to your site and followed the directions. This website was not listed in the blocked sites. It told me how to add it and I did. It still refuses to open this site. Internet Explorer WILL open this site.

After "Show Cookies", I found www.ustream.tv . I deleted it since it was under your "Remove Cookies" instruction.

When I tried going to www.ustream.tv/decoraheagles , it still did not work. I got the same error message.

You can try to increase the redirection limit a bit as a test to see if that helps.
If not then reset the pref to the default value (20).

After I told you that it still wasn't working, I let the computer go into sleep mode and I went to bed. This morning when I "woke" up the computer, it worked fine. Thank you very much. I really appreciate all your help.
