Why does Firefox intermittently fail to connect to the Newsmax website? I get a Secure Connection Failed message. It happens only occasionally, but enough to be an annoyance. What's the problem and how do I resolve it?

Hello all, I just installed Firefox 138.03 64 bit with no problem and it seems to be working great as usual however I did notice an error in my Event Viewer which is Event 7023 Service Control Manager which was about The Mozilla Maintenance Service terminated (please see below). I have never seen this error concerning Firefox and I have been using it as my default for years now. I have no idea what to do to correct/fix this or if I should be concerned about it. I went to Services and the Mozilla Maintenance Service is set to Manual but when I tried to start the service it said it could not start the service because of incorrect function. Could someone please guide me as to what is going on and what I should do. Thank you in advance.

Respectfully, Don

I am not sure if I asked this previously with another issue. Be that as it may, I will ask.

A few weeks ago I went into the Startup Menu to disable certain programs that I thought was slowing the system's startup. That was a couple weeks ago. I went over the startup items and disabled only those I do not use or need after starting my computer.

I use Yahoo as my homepage on the Firefox browser. On some of the photos associated with an article I get this error:

Error in rendering player

Error Code: 400-404 Session Id: rm7bfdr3 (Pls: 93a94693-7bc6-4c95-8398-99b65521dab2)

Why is this happening and how do I fix it? I will also attach a screen shot of a page with the error.

Thanks as always, Irv

Dear Sir or Madam: I seem to have a compatibility problem with my firefox browser. Not always, but often, I get a 502 error when I try to log in to my bank account. After contacting my bank, I found out that their program is not compatible with firefox and that I should use Google, which choose to avoid. Is there a patch or fix that can get rid of the 502 error and allow me to continue using Firefox, which I have used for almost twenty years. I don't want to switch to Google, EVER! Please let me know what options I might Have.

Respectivly, Louis Osip

I dread the days where FF has an updated version of something for me to install.. because this issue ALWAYS rears its ugly head.

I've been ignoring the updates since Feb and for very good reason because this time (138.01 or whatever) I'm unable to bypass these security certificate expired error codes that say:

"If your clock is already set to the right time, the website is likely misconfigured, and there is nothing you can do to resolve the issue. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem." I literally was able to access all these sites without issue until I downloaded your must have update. How is this fixed???

Should I just uninstall FF and go back to Brave? I'm so tired of dealing with this as a normal day to day, no coding/tech background, etc. internet user.

I have been using my Firefox browser to access my PSECU bank account for years. Over the past two months I cannot access the online bank statement getting a 404 message. I've contacted the bank and they say the issue is not with them but with Firefox. What can I do?

keep getting blocked on websites that used to work.

There is an Ad Blocker AVG that I can not get rid of. Frank

I am getting this error message in Firefox when attempting to open site however can access site in Chrome. I have closed adblockers and cleared SSL cache. If it matters I am using a new Notebook with Windows 11 and have recently installed Firefox and it was working up until today

Firefox is not letting me access Xero.com which is my primary use of working with clients.

The message I get is

Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://go.xero.com/app/!hQMY2/dashboard" on this server.

Is there anything I need to do to allow go.xero.com be used.
