Hoping someone can help. All of a sudden I can't use google shopping on Firefox from a PC. I can go to google shopping and search on a item. But any link I click from there gives me a "Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue" page and I am given no way to add an exception. I am on a PC running Windows 10. I also have a MacBook and do not have the same issue there. I appreciate any thoughts on how to fix this.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

While you are in safe mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
