Firefox cannot open/reload any websites after resuming from a system standby. I have to close the current window and start a new session, then it works again

I am using Firefox v 13.0.1 (Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical 1.0) on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Whenever my system resumes from standby I am not able to open/load any webpages in the Firefox session that was already running before the standby. I don't get any error message, but the page doesn't load at all. If I close the session and start a new one everything works fine.

You are actually using Firefox 4 according to your user Agent. Try to update to Firefox 15 Update Firefox to the latest version, does that help your problem any?

Not necessarily: rv:1.9.2.8 indicates a Firefox 3.6.8 version

  • Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/4.0.1

You can check for a possibly corrupted user agent.
