Hello, Since receiving a recent update to Firefox (I am a long time user), when using Google as the search engine, I am required to complete a Captcha every time, because Google says it has detected unusual activity from my location. Firefox is/has been installed on my computer for many years without any problems. It is used as supplied with the following extensions:- Ad Blocker Ultimate; Duck Duck Go Search & Tracker Protection; Enhancer For YouTube; Firefox Relay; Malwarebytes Browser Guard; Privacy Badger. If I change the search engine to say "Duck Duck Go" I don't get any Captcha requirement. I use Bit Defender Antivirus protection. Malwarebytes Free is used as a periodic check and is not activated to work full time. This problem didn't exist until a recent Firefox update. The Captcha requirement happens every time I use Firefox with Google search and if I boot up the computer and immediately use Firefox and no other program I get the Captcha requirement. How can there be "unusual activity"? If I use Google Chrome Browser, I don't get the Captcha requirement, it's just Firefox. With all the extensions from Firefox removed I still get the Captcha requirement. Any assistance would be welcome.

Recently, I have been experiencing this inconvenience where a google search shrinks to one side of the screen in a vertical format similar to the phone display. The 502 error usually also comes along when the google search utilizes Gemini. I've tried other browsers like Microsoft Edge with no problems.

View of ESPN "Schedules" is Correct on Edge but cut-off on Firefox, what am I doing wrong?

If I select Schedules in Firefox wherever the right side is extensive, the very end is cut off. If I use Edge, the browser corrects it, but I don't want to keep switching if I can help it.

Must have some setting wrong but haven't figured it out.

I recently updated to Firefox 158.0 on my MacOS, which is on OS 27.0.1 and all of a sudden, my Prime Video home page won't play videos. It just shows the spinny circle where I should be able to hit play, and in fact I cannot click on anything on the page. I can close it and open amazon again, but as soon as I go to Prime Video, it freezes up. I've tried deleting cookies and clearing the cache, restarting my Mac, but nothing seems to help.

login page for just one site hangs after Firefox upgrade

After the recent Firefox upgrade a couple of days ago, I am unable to get to my Questrade login page. I click login, I get a white page with a message in bottom left hand corner "transferring data from login.questrade.com..." and no further response. I am able to login with MS Edge, and Firefox is able to access all my other websites except this one.

I have run through all the things to try in the Firefox support article "Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can" to no effect.

  • cleared cookies & cache
  • cleared recent history
  • turned off DNS over HTTPS
  • Disable IPv6- changed to true
  • changed Proxy settings to No Proxy

I've turned off Bitdefender firewall and antivirus apps to no effect and ran a full system scan with Bitdefender. I really don't want to have to use a different browser each time I want to access questrade site. I would really appreciate any advice as to what else I could try to resolve this issue. Thanks so much!

Whenever I use FireFox to watch Twitch, majority of chat just never appears until I refresh the site... It was working good until some month ago...

I use the extension BTTV to get extra emotes on twitch. And it was working perfectly, some say that is the issue, so I removed it to test, but still FireFox is not loading all messages... What can be done to fix this? Just use another browser?

Updated Firefox browser for desktop on Mac to 158.0 on 10/15/26

On 10/14/26 using previous Firefox version 157.0 on Amazon.com Prime Video section, pages would load properly and videos could be played properly.

10/15/26 using updated version on Amazon.com Prime Video section, page would initially load properly only to later freeze. Videos could not be played. And freezing could not be corrected unless closing the tab on the browser.

10/15/26 using Safari browser on Amazon.com Prime video section, pages loaded properly and videos played properly.

Clearing cache and site data on updated version of Firefox did not have any effect. Pages continued to freeze and videos unplayable when starting over and navigating to the relevant pages.


Steps to reproduce:

go to amazon.com login to account go to prime video page

expected results video selection appears and user can select and play videos

actual result video selection appear but freezes after a second or two,. videos cannot be played
