Why does the ebay bidding amount box clear itself before I have time to click on 'Submit Bid" loosing me the opportunity to make any bid?

This week when trying to bid for items on ebay immediately - within 2secs - after inputting the amount and before I have time to click on "Submit Bid" the amount box has cleared itself. Then closer the auction gets to the end time - say during the last 30secs - as I try to type in the amount - say 125.00 - the 1 is replaced by the 2; the 2 is replaced by the 5; the 5 is replaced by the .; the . is replaced by the 0 etc.
Can someone please explain what might be going wrong? I am using Mac OS Mojave v10.14.6.
I have not tried to purchase on ebay since May 2019 when it was 'working as you might expect'. Then I was using Mac OS High Sierra Not being able to make the purchases I was after due to this apparent malfunction came as a real shock.
Is the cause likely to be my PC setting in some way; a glitch in Firefox or an ebay issue. I have spoken with ebay but they were not able to give me an immediate answer as to whether or not it is an ebay malfunction. My account with ebay is clean.
I hope someone in the community can point me in the right direction. Thank you.

Thanks.

NOTE: I am running this browser on a second computer that Firefox is working OK on.
The machine I am trying to get Firefox working on is Windows 10 pro Dell 8390.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I get a message when re-installing that the application failed to start and in error code (0xc0000005). The app appears to load OK, but displays an empty page. Selecting other links causes the address for the link to appear in the address box, but nothing loads. I am pretty sure that I am installing v73, but couldn't find the about window to know for sure.

This happened after Firefox updated to v73. When I go into a 123 Flash chat room (chat-avenue.com), the screen will frequently white out; the entire screen goes white. Sometimes it will come back to normal after a few seconds; other times I need to close/open or switch tabs, and other times, the Flash tab will crash back to the main (non Flash) page of that site . v72 and earlier didn't have this problem. Other tabs are not affected.
If there isn't a way to go back to v.72 is there any workaround until this gets fixed? Thanks.
Firefox says that it is being managed by an organization, but this is my own computer, and when I click to see active policies there is nothing there.

I've asked on Reddit but I haven't found a fix for this yet so I'm asking here. In the settings for Firefox it says that my browser is being managed by your organization. But it has no mention of any settings being restricted, and when I clicked the notification to check the policy the page was entirely empty. I also checked the Firefox program folder and there wasn't any sign of an Autoconfic file that I could notice. One user mentioned on Reddit that this issue is often caused by antivirus companies forcefully inserting their own SSL certs to intercept your encrypted traffic, he then suggested turning off "web scanning" but my antivirus (which I only use Malwarebytes and Windows Defender) already had them disabled. After doing some research on my own I found out that the antivirus Avast used to cause this issue, and I had uninstalled Avast a while back, so I figured that the reason that the policy wasn't there was because Avast was uninstalled, but, I never saw this notification before today. So if anybody can help me pinpoint what this is and how remove it would be much appreciated. But all I really want to know if is this is something that I should be worried about or is it simply a bug. Also one other question is why the top sites and search bar is really close to the address bar after the latest update. Is this just a design change? Or is this something I need to be concerned about? Because I didn't notice this on Firefox on my laptop. Thanks in advance.

Bookmarks frequently have helpful cute little icons next to them. I like to rename many of my bookmarks (the Google ones) with zero length names - but the folder that drops down is still wide to accomodate the "Open in all tabs." This could be a bit better.
Youtube videos stuttering after updating to firefox 72

After updating to firefox 72 (maybe it was after 72.0.1 - I did not have time to check so fast) videos on youtube started stuttering. When I start video everything seems fine but after a while it starts microstuttering - image is twitching, movement of camera is not fluent.
It looks like it is related to all videos on youtube. I watch mostly 1080p 60fps and these most often cause this issue. Example video: https://youtu.be/1La4QzGeaaQ It is easy to observe it at 1:27 with camera movement and terrain being fluent or not. If I pause video and resume play after few minutes it seems fine for minute but then it starts being choppy again. It does not seem to be related to video quality. I had 0 dropped frames in yt stats. I found workaround - if I set media.wmf.vp9.enabled to false and restart browser with this setting set to false everything is fine. But when I set it to true (like it always was for me) problem starts to occur. However no matter what I set youtube still shows "codecs: vp09". I do not have this problem on microsoft edge. I never had this problem on firefox 71 and I did not add any new extensions since few weeks. It must be new firefox fault, not my hardware or configuration.
How can I enable back the dropdown in address bar?

So my Firefox Developer edition just got updated to the version 74.0b2 and I got this brand new address/search bar. One of the things that it used to have before it had been updated was a simple arrow-down button that, when clicked, showed the most visited sites. Now, after the update, this button is gone (pic related). This makes my experience with Firefox *extremely* worse, because now I don't have a quick access to open one of my most visited sites inside the current tab without starting typing their addresses. Is there any option to bring that feature back? Is removal of this button an already-made design choice for Firefox that will stay with us for the next versions?
Black bars appear on screen.
After most recent Firefox update, black bars now appear across screen in High Contrast Mode. Page displays properly in standard mode and on other browsers.

In the latest version of Firefox Developer Edition, I notice the the urlbar behaviour has changed from what it was before and I want to change it back. Are there any settings in about:config that do this? In particular, I want to stop expanding and even showing suggestions whenever I click in the address bar. To me, this is odd and distracting behaviour and not what is done by other browsers so I want to turn it off.

I don't get why I have to bookmark my tabs into a new folder, when there is a new folder button when you're selecting which folder to put the bookmarks into. It's a bit annoying that I have to go into the bookmark archives to move the bookmarks into the folder I meant to pur it in. It's the same shit with Chrome, and it was one of the reasons I switched to Firefox.
