Hi   tomsff   !

I went to  www.searchcard.com  and got a message from Kaspersky:

Start browser in Safe Mode

......   this happens to be one of   FredMcD's   suggestions   ......

'Sure hope that does the trick   (otherwise I'll have to think twice about renewing Kaspersky's license   .... )   !

Good luck   !

No, Safe mode did the same thing, after signing on sears.com the webpage just kept spinning like it was loading but it would not load. I never had this trouble before, i always used firefox to go to sears.com and it use to work every time. does it have anything to do with the new version of firefox 48.0?

'Don't know if this has anything to do with the latest   FF-version,   but if I were you I'd try   FredMvD's   other suggestions;   one of them is bound to do the trick   (I hope   !)
Keep trying   !

Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe websites. Is the problem still there?

Hi, check your antivirus settings as shown in How to troubleshoot security error codes on secure websites, or even disable it completely as a test - but ONLY if you know the site to be safe.

Ok, I installed the last version and it still did not work. i wonder if sears stopped using firefox, but why would they let you sign in, then not load the page, it dont make sense. So i guess i will have to use IE 11 just to bring up and sign onto sears. but i dont like ie. will use firefox for my surfing anyway. since there does not seem to be anything else i can try, I want to Thank you all for your help. later.

Let's try this; Remove History For One Site Open the History Manager <Control><Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any passwords / settings.
