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.

How to disable Hardware Acceleration {web link}

Hi Fred, Thnx for responding but have tried all your suggestions with no success. I'm running Private all the while but cleared cookies anyway and had previously tried troubleshooting mode with no joy. With Hardware acceleration off graphics are slower but still Firefox is reluctant to open ant 'click here' instruction on any site and wont allow me into my Morrison's account. Though I loathe Edge, it gives me no trouble in this context. It's something the Firefox has changed in late December. A pity Firefox is no becoming full of gadgets and wheezes, it was far more trustworthy when it was simpler.
