When signing in to online Shaw Webmail, message says 'Security Check Failed. Clear your browser cache and retry'. Screenshot attached. Have done so in "Clear browsing and data history", (as per Firefox guidelines) multiple times, for all History and cache. Did not resolve issue. Contacted Shaw Support; they instructed to try logging in with Chrome browser. Worked fine. Issue appears to be strictly with Firefox Browser (on multiple devices). I prefer Firefox over Chrome. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to nrega.nic.in because this website requires a secure connection.

What can you do about it?

nrega.nic.in has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

Probably nothing, since it’s likely there’s a problem with the site itself.

Hi Please could someone help me re-order my firefox toolbars. Previously I managed to arrange them in the order I prefer, but an update seems to have destroyed the order again, and I can no longer find the web page which explained how to do it. reading from the top, I would like to see: • Title bar • Menu bar • Navigation toolbar • Bookmarks toolbar • Tabs toolbar • Web content area

Instead I have • Title bar • Menu bar • Tabs toolbar • Navigation toolbar • Bookmarks toolbar (I even seem to have lost this now and don't know how to get it back!) • Web content area Thanks for any help that can be provided. Brox

Hi. I'm asking this question because I'm not quite sure how to describe this issue through a Google search. Recently, I've noticed that whenever I click and drag anything, an icon will pop up while I'm doing so. Attached is an example, I click-and-dragged on the "Learn More" hyperlink off to the right.

Is there any way to disable the icon that pops up? It bothers me and seems to slow things down, which isn't ideal. I'm not the most well-versed when it comes to Firefox's more advanced settings (the options in about:config and whatnot) so I wouldn't know where to start.

Firefox has shortcuts at the top of any new tab opened. These are usually your most visited pages. For most shortcuts, if you click the three dots you get a menu of: Pin Edit Open in a New Window Open in a New Private Window Dismiss Delete From History

This is the menu you get for almost all shortcuts EXCEPT for Amazon. For the Amazon shortcut you get: Pin Dismiss

That's it. No opportunity to edit it. And if you click on the shortcut, it doesn't take you to Amazon.com, instead it opens "Amazon.com Search" in the address bar. I don't want Search, I want to go to the Amazon home page but the shortcut doesn't take me to the Amazon homepage like it used to. Why is this broken now?

(Sorry if the wrong area.)

I'm curious and play with Node-Red a lot.

Just now I am playing with the `http-request` to explore web pages.

I press the `F12` key and the tools pop up and I go through some basic things.

I see/get just about nothing. See pic (Don't know to make it inline.) But the name says it all.

So I've pressed the `F12` key, clicked on the NETWORK and REFRESHED the page.

Now with Chrome.

Whole different set of stuff.

Someone - please. What's going on? I'm not understanding the huge difference with how things are shown.

After every update, Firefox starts to a blank screen and will not start loading the webpage url put in for over twenty minutes to a half hour. During this time other browsers on my Win 10 PC load immediately so it is not a network issue. It is Firefox. When I see that an update is pending I hesitate to do the update because I know I will lose the use of Firefox until it is ready to respond. It just hangs with "loading X.com" showing at the bottom left of the blank screen. I have been using Firefox for a long time and in the past year or longer it has become very unreliable. There are also instances where without an update it will do this and the only way I can get it to work is to clear the cache and the history through settings. What is going on with Firefox! (And lately there is an update every couple fo days!
