I turned off my computer and turned it back on. Firefox did something with automatic updates. Since that time I have not been able to access things I could previously, such as my account on Amazon.com When I go to the amazon website and try to log in, I get an error message that says something about an OCSP certificate not being able to be authenticated. This happens on other sites as well. I did call amazon to report the problem. This was days ago and the problem persists. I can access my amazon account information on my home computer using firefox. This is just happening on my office computer since it did some auto updating. Both my home computer and the office computer on which I am having trouble using the browser are running on Wndows XP. Something clearly happened to the browswer on the office computer because I can access things on the home computer with the firefox browser that I can't on this computer.

First attempt to try using Firefox in safe mode. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Second attempt to correct the issues via refreshing Firefox. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-settings Third I recommend you use something like malwarebytes to scan your PC. https://www.malwarebytes.org/
