All of a sudden, Firefox will not open links sent in my e mail...I get redirected to a page that says "having trouble finding that site"....this is happening on multiple sites...so can you help? My Firefox is up to date...as is my laptop, running Mirosoft 10 version 21H2.....I have tried using another browser with no luck there as well. Any ideas?
