I checked the page. It works just fine.

It still does not work for me. The page does open then closes with a meesage "waiting for site to load" but it does not load.

After trying all the suggestions, the page will not stay on, it shows initially and the closes at the bottom of the blank page it says- transferring data from www.apollodirect.co.uk but nothing ever gets loaded.

After trying all the above, the web page only opens for a second and the closes, at the bottom of the blank page it say that it is transfering data from www.apollodirect.co.uk but never opens. This is the only web page I have had a problem with. I can access this page normally on another pc but not this one.

Very frustrating.

Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:

• In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button , click Help and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.

If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:

• On Windows: Hold the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.

When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article to find the cause.

To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.

When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

I keep trying to access www.apollodirect.co.uk it shows for a second and then disappears. Please help.

It appears to have been rectified, it was to do with spyware addon within the firefox browser.

Thanks for your help

Remove History For One Site Open the History Manager <Control><Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any passwords / settings.

Yes I have tried everything and the problem still remains with the Firefox browser. To my knowledge this is the only site which I cannot access fully. I have tried it on another computer without Firefox and it works just fine, so I conclude that it has something to do with the firefox browser.

Did you try Firefox on the other computer?

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All of them.

Something in your Firefox, or your computer is doing the blocking.
