Firefox Community Forum

I get the USPS informed delivery emails that show what mail is arriving daily. Whenever I click the "dashboard" link, I get:

Bad Request

Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit. If I go to the site, and click a link, the same thing happens. This doesn't happen with Chrome where links function normally. So, I think there must be a setting somewhere preventing me from accessing the links. I tried turning off "Block pop-up windows," but that had no effect.

Thanks, Ed

When I open firefox in a virtual machine with Parrot and try to search for something in the search engine I get the following:

Hmm. We're having trouble finding that site.

We can't connect to the server at start.parrotsec.org.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
Check your network connection
Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

and I can't do anything.

For no apparent reason I suddenly found that I could no longer browse via duckduckgo or Google (but could through Edge!). The on-screen response just informed that the sites were not available. I had no idea what could have caused this but a Microsoft fault search identified it is a DNS problem. I prefer to use the duckduckgo and need to resolve the DNS situation. Is this a Firefox problem, and if so, how do I fix it while still maintaining security?

This has been a problem for me for a very long time, and I'm tired of having to use Chrome every time there's an update to Firefox.

The issue I have is that I will get the notification saying there's an update. I click the button to update now, the browser opens the auto download page and I get a not secure connection warning. The only work around I've found is to use Chrome, and sometimes I can use the "Other downloads" option.

I'm not running a VPN, or any other networking software on my pc. This is for the full program, not the Windows Store app.

Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to download.mozilla.org. The server uses key pinning (HPKP) but no trusted certificate chain could be constructed that matches the pinset. Key pinning violations cannot be overridden.

Error code: MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_KEY_PINNING_FAILURE

For the past few weeks Firefox has been crashing and freezing often. Crashes are worst when trying to access Protonmail, which almost always crashes the tab instantly. Freezes happen most often when browsing Reddit, and also when watching Youtube, but crashes and freezes can happen on almost any website.

I have tried changing profiles, refreshing and uninstalling/reinstalling, but the problem persists and seems to be getting worse over time.

Here are some recent crash reports:

Will be grateful if someone can help me get to the bottom of this Thanks

Is there a way to make the URL high lighting of the domain more obvious? I find that most people can barely see the highlighting and I'd like to make it obvious (bolder and red, or highlighted in yellow, for instance.)

Can this be done via userchrome.css?

Thanks,

Thane

When I open Firefox it opens a maximized window with tabs, then it opens a minimized with a single tab, then it reopens a maximized window with all session tabs. Each window displays in succession, one window at a time.

I'm on desktop using Windows 11.

I just read a post saying this behavior was caused by the resist fingerprinting feature. Can someone explain how that causes the repeated opening of browser window 3 times. Is there a way to retain the anti-fingerprinting behavior w/o the multiple window opening behavior?

Dear Sir/Madam I am unable to reach Jiohotstar website since last three days. The same site is accessible through Microsoft Edge and Chrome browsers. I also tried through Firefox browser on a different machine but could not succeed. I have cleared all the cookies and cache as well but it was of no use. Firefox is running with the latest version. There seems to be a glitch in the browser somewhere. Pankaj Mittal Mail : pankajmittal105@gmail.com

I received a notification that i could not connect to the internet without logging in. I tried the remedy suggested by other users (2020) and succeeded in removing this notification but still cannot access internet from my Mac computer. I have been a mozilla user for many years and have not encountered this oroblem before. All my other devices are working.

Attempted to do an Firefox update more than a month ago on my HP (microsoft windows) computer. Everytime I open my computer I gt the Firefox Crash Reporter Window. When I hit the Quit firefox box it submits the crash report and then I X out the box. I cannot use Firefox as a browser. The DISASTER is that I CANNOT open any files previously downloaded while using Firefox (eg PDF files). I get the crash report box. I NEED these files!

Please HELP!

I'm trying to access my https://mypay.dfas.mil account, but, though previously all was well, now an error message tells me that you "can't connect to the server".

I have a network connection, but apparently Firefox may no longer have "permission to access to the web". I'm sure this is wrong because I can still access pretty much everything in the normal way, including other government sites, such as Social Security, using the Login.gov portal, though mypay is not listed as 'connected.'

What happened, and how do I fix it? Also, the error message says that I should "Check that Firefox has permission". How do I do that?

I just purchased a year subscription for the Mozilla VPN. I want to be able to verify that the FireFox browser I'm using is accessing the web via the VPN. How do I verify that? I don't see any icon indicated that it's a VPN connection.

I like firefox...used it two to three times a week for over ten years...Now when I click on the icon on my menu, I am greeted by the ansurb: "That doesn't look right." When I try to download Firefox, it will not down load...why are you idiots doing this to your own product?
