No matter what type, size or source of file I try to download, the download invariably fails withn 30 seconds of starting. Once it fails, retrying the download gets me another piece of the file until the download fails again. To get the file to completion, I have to retry numerous times until it gets to the end. If I have multiple files downloading simulteneouly, that requires dedicated man-management to ensure all of them are fully saved.

Having to accompany any download like that is highly annoying and takes time and attenition away performing other tasks in my browsing session. On the same Windows 10 PC, I do not encounter similar issues using other browsers to try to download the same file - it's a one-click, fire-ans-forget process there. I even recently reset my Windows installation and then reinstalled a fresh copy of Firefox (my favourite browser to use) but this annoying issue persists.

Can anyone help?

I am trying to change my email address and the dialog demands a conformation code sent to my e-mail address. The ISP on my old email address is hosted is getting to the end of its life and the help desk is not responsive.

I have checked the spam log and no recent messages from *.mozilla.org appeared.

I have added a *.mozilla.org to the white list and still no email with conformation code is arriving.

Do I just scrap my old membership and start with my new email address?

Impossible to login in the BT website to read my emails. The login details are not recognised although they are right. I have deleted all cookies and caches and deleted the details in the passwords memorized by Firefox, restarted everything, without result. I can login fine using Microsoft Edge, but not Firefox. And the same problem happened today with my Epson account: can login with ME but not Firefox. Why???

In troubleshooting another issue, I discovered that running Firefox without hardware acceleration occasionally results in very weird text corruption and video stuttering. I was able to capture some screenshots of the issue, which I have attached. The text is still selectable and copy/pasting it to a document will show the proper text. Closing PIP windows helps the stuttering a bit. Issue persisted when a single tab of Firefox was the only non-background program running.

I have turned hardware accel. back on and haven't experienced the issue since. Just thought I ought to post in case someone else had this issue too.

I recently updated my Firefox browser, and unfortunately, my trusted anti-virus software, ESET, no longer redirects pre-selected websites like banking, PayPal, and insurance to secure pages. This feature has been working flawlessly for years but seems to have stopped functioning in Firefox alone. I prefer using Firefox as my primary browser and would like to find a solution that allows this redirection feature to work again. Can you assist me with this issue?
