For months the following site was my home page. Windows did an update on the 6th. May just be coincidence, but ever since I get this message: Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.foxnews.com/" on this server.

Reference #18.a7ce5640.1575816574.3bf0f21c Funny but it launches on Chrome and Explorer, but I hate them both and have no use for them. HELP ME !!!

You can remove all data stored in Firefox for a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History -> Show All History" or "View -> Sidebar -> History").

Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox for this domain like history and cookies and passwords and exceptions and cache, so be cautious. If you have a password or other data for that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.

You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of involved files.

If you revisit a 'forgotten' website then data for that website will be saved once again.
