Firefox Community Forum

Hi, I'm still using Windows 7. Yes probably that's a cause but I'm not sure how. I'm using Firefox 115.38.0esr. Now for a while I've been finding it difficult to log into eBay. I'd try and log on and get this message "SORRY

Something went wrong on our end

<a varying error number>

Please go back and try again or go to eBay Homepage."

I'd go to the homepage and successfully log in. Then it took more than one try. Now I can't log in at all. I can still log in on a buying only account. It doesn't allow me to use the password, but it will accept access via text message. With the seller accounts, it doesn't give the option for access via text message only. Can this be fixed by Mozilla? I removed all extensions, and reset by PC to an earlier backup in case corruption was a cause. I've also deleted the cash.

For the past few days almost every site I try to visit gets the error:

Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to.... SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG

this has happened on and off in the past for one or two sites but usually fixes itself within a day or less but this time it's been days. I tried everything I've seen online: -Try without add ons, - I am using 'system settings' proxy, -Followed an 8-yr-old suggestion of switching security.tls.version.max from 4 to 3 -My AV doesn't have HTTPS scanning that I can disable -It doesn't allow me to toggle the 'enhanced tracking is on' in the address bar -I've tried adding a site as an exception to DNS over HTTPS and turning Enable DNS over HTTPS off

Nothing has helped. These are all sites I've used in the past. I am using Nightly v150 at the moment but obviously same situation with FF or R3dfox.

If anyone can suggest how to bypass this so I don't have to use Edge/Chrome/Supermium (which all display these sites without issue) I'd appreciate it so much!

(*I'm looking for help with THIS issue on a W7 laptop, not about whether I should upgrade the OS.)

Thanks.

So, as has been announced, FireFox 115 ESR will get updates until septempber 2025. This deadline has been extended multiple times. What factors are being taken in consideration when deciding whether to extend support again? With server 2008 updates you can get windows 7 up to date until 2026, sort of. Ending support in september would still be sad, because people too stubborn or not willing to upgrade probably still wont when support of firefox ends. I am a firefox on windows 7 user myself too, and it would be sad if they dropped support. Ill have to use a backported fork by the community

So thats my question, what factors matter in terms of extending 115 esr support again?

I run 115.37.0esr (64bit) on a Windows 7 pro system. Recently I cannot look at either Home Depot or Lowes websites. I can see them on Chrome. I have no other trouble viewing websites, just these two. Can anyone tell me why and more to the point tell me how to fix it.

Since the last few days weather.com will not work with my version of Firefox. I use 115.37.0esr version of Firefox. Since the last few days Weather.com seems like it is loading and displays the page correctly for half a second but as soon as the page appears, it disappears leaving a small message midscreen that says " This page couldn’t load - Reload to try again, or go back."

I tried turning off my adblocker but that made no difference. Anyone got any ideas? I really like weather.com. It's one of those nice websites that are like when the web was new and was just a useful thing for everyone.
