Software is Preventing Firefox From Safely Connecting to This Site

news.google.com is most likely a safe site, but a secure connection could not be established. This issue is caused by Private Internet Access, which is either software on your computer or your network.

What can you do about it?

news.google.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

   If your antivirus software includes a feature that scans encrypted connections (often called “web scanning” or “https scanning”), you can disable that feature. If that doesn’t work, you can remove and reinstall the antivirus software.
   If you are on a corporate network, you can contact your IT department.
   If you are not familiar with Private Internet Access, then this could be an attack, and there is nothing you can do to access the site.

For about 2 weeks now, the audio volume on youtube videos fluctuates up and down. The volume starts off low when a person starts to talk. For example, when the person in the video starts to talk, their voice volume is very low then within a second or two, the volume rises to normal as they talk. When they finish a sentence and start a new one (when there is a short pause in the audio) their voice is again at a very low volume, rising to normal in a second or two. This repeats as they speak throughout the entire video. This is not specific to any youtube video or youtube channel, it happens on all youtube videos. I have tried updating all audio drivers in Windows 11 - no improvement. I have tried rebooting the computer - no improvement Firefox is up to date, version 133.0 I have tried watching the same videos using Chrome and I do not have this problem. Any help correcting this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Brad

I'm having this weird issue where youtube videos will play fine as long as I don't seek the video. If I do seek a couple of times, the image will freeze but the audio continues. The subtitles also continue if enabled. Firefox Release 134.0.1--January 14, 2025 Fresh install from Flatpak. No addons installed.I have tried both on and off hardware acceleration but the issue still persists even in troubleshoot mode.But no problem with other firefox based browsers like mullvad,librewolf,zen.

Using Private Browsing to reach Social Security website

I use Mozzila Firefox private browsing to connect to my bank account and the Social Security website. Social Security changed their website during the last year to use three outside vendors to check/confirm logon credentials. I use the ID.Me one mostly. So I go to the Social Security website and push the Login button. The website then displays the the three vendors and pick ID.Me. Once you've made your selection, you go to a notification page that says, you are leaving the Social Security page, "go back" or "yes". When I pick "yes", the computer always locks up. I have never had this clear up. The only way to proceed is to long press the On/Off button to do a hard reset.

I have an older Acer computer, Aspire 7, and it is running Windows 11. I can reach the Social Security if I use the Duck, Duck, Go web browser.

Have you seen this problem before or has it been previously reported? Is there a fix available?

I have used Firefox for years, and especially since the ability to pin tabs was created. After this last update I experienced an issue on one website, which the tab is pinned, that was not present before. After putting things into my shopping cart, I click on the shopping cart and if the original tab is pinned then the shopping cart opens in a new tab. Before this latest update Firefox was smarter than that.

My zip code changes constantly when I sign into accounts such as Costco, Sams, Home Depot. I correct the zip and when I sign out and back in, it's changed again. I had Geek Squad run a diagnostic and they said it's a Firefox issue. When I use MS Edge, the zip code does not change. Can I get help with this issue?

Recently when I try to access any of my accounts on my Mobile Phone through Firefox I get an error that says This Website Requires A Secure Connection. I don't get this message from any other browser on my Mobile Phone and I don't get this message on my Desktop. It tells me to try again or go to the Advance Tab and it still does not go to a site.

The bookmarks and everything works except to take me to a website.

Why does firefox bookmarks not always load until you do refresh? I go into one of my bookmark folders, click on a bookmark and normally that page will open automatically, but some bookmarks require me to click Refresh to get the selected bookmark to actually load. Very strange behavior. And I checked that the DNS over HTTPS thingy was disabled. Enabled or disabled -- does not matter, results are the same. Bookmarks I have issues with link to various pages on myfreecams.com (adult site) so maybe that is part of the issue. Hmmmm. But I like those girls. 😍 Mmm Mm, Delicious. Oh!!, be careful!! Never browse without "umatrix" firewall extention installed on your Browser to guard against evil scripts and other bad things.
