Firefox Community Forum

Hi, just to say, sorry, I’m an absolute idiot, I don’t understand tech at all. I have a VPN, privacy badger and ublock origin. These issues continue whether these three things are turned off or not, so I believe it must be to do with my Firefox settings.

Everything was fine, but now all of the sudden, certain elements of pages will not load.

So for example, today I tried to go to Gizmodo and look at a Star Trek page. Cool. https://gizmodo.com/star-trek-day-announcements-include-a-lego-collaboration-and-a-youtube-kids-series-2000655142

This is not the only site, just an example.

Clicked the comment button to see what people are saying. It won’t load the comments. The comments are completely blocked. They don't exist. When I try to look at the comments, it just shows me another part of the webpage, can't even see the comments.

Thought it was just this site, but then today I was on a plastic surgeon site in Europe to make a payment and it wouldn’t load the payment page.

I tried turning off badger and unblock to make the payment, and it didn’t work.

Honestly I really have no idea what the problem is, I know I’m doing something stupid but I don’t know what it is or how to figure out.

Any help on figuring out what’s going on or where the hiccups for these might be would be welcome.

Thank you!

I suddenly started getting a flood of messages informing me of various security risks and that i needed to click a link to sort this out. Needless to say, I DID NOT click any links. I am only getting these messages when I open Firefox. The messages all link to "securebotshield.co.in". I ran Malwarebytes but it does not pick up anything. I am running the latest version of Firefox on a Windows 11 machine. Please can you help me get rid of this menace?

Thanks

PROSZĘ zróbcie czułość rozwijania bocznego panelu. Nie wiem czy to tylko w ostatnim czasie ale bardzo ciężko najechać na coś kursorem blisko bocznego panelu ponieważ ten odrazu się rozwija. Jestem zadowolony z tej formy kart przeglądarek więc chciałbym przy niej pozostać, natomiast ta czułość rozwijania kiedy kursor myszki jest stosunkowo daleko jest irytująca i znacząco utrudnia korzystanie z przeglądarki.

I can access Gmail via Chrome, but using Firefox I'm told my account is temporarily unavailable (for three days now). The dashboard says there's no problem.

NB I've just realised I've not had a Firefox update for a while- is there a connection?

Hello,

I can't see the livesteams on Clawcrazy.

It was working fine yesterday, I can see them on chrome from my pc and another device with Firefox can see them.

I have tried disabling my add-ons, clearing the cache, updating the gpu, making a new Firefox profile, turning enhanced tracking protection off and a private browser.

In each attempt I've always restarted Firefox and restarted my pc 2 times.

I'm out of idea's now.

I have a screenshot of the console and its errors.

would really appreciate the help.

I want to sync bookmarks between my private and business PCs. I want to transfer bookmarks from my personal PC to my business machine, but I don;t want to transfer any bookmarks from my business PC to my home PC. Can that be done?

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to player.vimeo.com because this website requires a secure connection.

What can you do about it?

player.vimeo.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it.

If you are on a corporate network or using antivirus software, you can reach out to the support teams for assistance. You can also notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

I often browse photo-heavy websites, for example, Fashionismic Fashionismic

, which has lots of hairstyle galleries. On Chrome and Edge the pages load smoothly, but on Firefox I sometimes notice lag or higher memory usage when scrolling through multiple images.

I’d like to know:

Is there any Firefox setting (like hardware acceleration, image cache, or media decoding) that can help improve performance on pages with many photos?

Would using an image optimization extension help?

Are there specific about:config tweaks recommended for users who frequently view image-rich sites?

I really like Firefox and want to keep it as my main browser, but smoother handling of photo galleries would help a lot. Any guidance would be appreciated.
