Firefox Community Forum

For the past few days almost every site I try to visit gets the error:

Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to.... SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG

this has happened on and off in the past for one or two sites but usually fixes itself within a day or less but this time it's been days. I tried everything I've seen online: -Try without add ons, - I am using 'system settings' proxy, -Followed an 8-yr-old suggestion of switching security.tls.version.max from 4 to 3 -My AV doesn't have HTTPS scanning that I can disable -It doesn't allow me to toggle the 'enhanced tracking is on' in the address bar -I've tried adding a site as an exception to DNS over HTTPS and turning Enable DNS over HTTPS off

Nothing has helped. These are all sites I've used in the past. I am using Nightly v150 at the moment but obviously same situation with FF or R3dfox.

If anyone can suggest how to bypass this so I don't have to use Edge/Chrome/Supermium (which all display these sites without issue) I'd appreciate it so much!

(*I'm looking for help with THIS issue on a W7 laptop, not about whether I should upgrade the OS.)

Thanks.

Hello! I can't login to my x.com account from Firefox 115.35.2esr on Windows 7 SP1. I'd was stay logged in many years before I accidentally clear my cookies. And now I can't login. It just reloaded input form when I type my login and press "Next"button. I tryed login from Private mode, I tryed to disable all addons. Nothing helped. But I still can login/logout from Firefox 140.10.2 on Windows 11.

In Firefox console I see

errors [ {…} ] 0 Object { code: 399, message: "Could not log you in now. Please try again later. g;177706962260066684:-1778241640627:geToqptptoIvemMOHotwS0TF:1" } code 399 message "Could not log you in now. Please try again later. g;177706962260066684:-1778241640627:geToqptptoIvemMOHotwS0TF:1"

and

Corporate Policy: Skip unsupported function name "identity-credentials-get"

Can anyone help me to fix it?

Why is Firefox trying to establish UDP connections with Google IP's every time I open it?

No extensions installed. No homepage (set to blank).

Some of the IP's: 34.107.243.93 34.128.139.172 35.244.159.8

Lately when following links from google searches to some sites I get a "can't find" or "access not allowed". These sites tend to be hardware stores - specifically Home Depot or Lowes and some times Walmart. It is NOT my OS!! Because I copy the URL and paste it into Chrome and it works just fine.

Obviously switching to Chrome would solve this issue - but I've used Firefox for years and prefer to stick with it.

What's changing out there that is causing these incompatibilities?

I'm not sure what is going on with Firefox the past 6 months but I'm constantly getting an access denied message like this..... "You don't have permission to access "http://www.sunglasshut.com/us" on this server. " However, when I use the Chrome Browser, the webpage loads instantly. I'm not a fan of Chrome and have supported Firefox for years. Why am I having issues with your browser?

Says Old school Win 7 OS

Yes No Proxy Yes Boolean Yes IPv6 Disabled

certain sites ( like FedEx tracking ) say that I can't visit because my browser needs an update. but I checked and Mozilla says that I AM up to date . last update April 28 What can I do to fix this?

When I click on any product at Home Depot site, I always get 'error page -- please refresh page'. Did not previously have any problems at that site. I'm running Windows 7 (sorry!) on desktop.

Why does my older computer running Windows 7 keep losing the ability to access "https:// sites"?

To resolve, I have to reset the network adapter (sometimes successful) or restart the computer to access these sites.
