when making a credit card transaction using Mozilla the vendor website passes me onto a webpage which my bank is responsible. for, at this point the transaction will freeze and will not take place. This has only happened in the last two weeks. Prior to this all transactions worked perfectly well.

To complete any online purchase that has a transaction / card authorisation step in the proceedure I now have to use an alternative web browser that works perfectly well so the issue is obviously one with Mozilla which is annnoying.


Please advise

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?

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.
