Bank of America block?
I'm no longer able to log in to BankofAmerica.com using Firefox but can do so with Chrome. BofA tells me that Firefox is most likely put a block that isn't showing up. Can you remove that block or tell me where to find the block to all Bank of America to log in to my account?

On that website press Ctrl + Shift + i, then select the Network tab. Try to log in and check if any request is being blocked.
I did what TyDraniu said but what am I looking for? About 50 lines of code streamed by as the page loaded up and the login was attempted. I did see the red circle with a line through it a few times, but what do I do with that?
Does it still happen in Troubleshoot Mode?
Yes it does.
I am sure it is something that Bank of America did i.e. up the security level or something. It changed about 3 weeks ago. BoA says to use Chrome so that is why I am checking with Mozilla to see if they are going to address it.

Does it still happen in a new profile? An easy way to test a new profile is to install Developer Edition and see if it happens there or refresh your existing profile.
It did happen on other profiles too (I have multiple accounts). But as of today either BoA or Firefox fixed the issue as I can sign in without any problems.
