This issue can be caused by corrupted cookies.
Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
- Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
- Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
Hi cor-el. Thanks for the help. I cleared the cache and cookies, that was not the problem. The changes to the cookies may take me a while, since I will have to study it. It's not as easy as it looks! I will get back to you.
Clearing the cookies did not work for me. So... my solution was the hard way. Removed Firefox (including all personal settings) and did a fresh install. Now it is working fine again.
