Firefox no longer works with my Century Link webmail account. I can get to webmail using other browsers, but I prefer to stay with Firefox. I just checked my Firefox updates and I am up to date. Any ideas? Bob

Hi Bob, does the site display an error message, or does it refuse to sign in, or is the page displaying incorrectly?

Since I'm not sure of the exact problem, I'll mention one issue that affects ability to sign in:

Firefox's "Total Cookie Protection" feature limits how sites can use "third party" or "cross-site" cookies, meaning cookies from different websites than the one you see in the address bar. Some sites pass you back and forth between different servers during login because they have their services spread out over a number of different servers. In those cases, you might be able to submit a form successfully on one page and then the next page says you are not logged in. Frustrating!

You can make exceptions to this feature when needed (for each server that you visit as part of the process of using this company's services). Try clicking the shield icon at the left end of the address bar (next to the lock). On the drop-down, click the blue slider switch to disable protection. Repeat on the bank's other servers and you encounter them.

Any difference?

Hey Bob, try clearing your cache/cookies for CenturyLink and see if that helps. Also, maybe disable any extensions (like ad blockers) just to test. Sometimes webmail doesn’t play nice with strict privacy settings. Good luck!
