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.

Hi, I'm still using Windows 7. Yes probably that's a cause but I'm not sure how. I'm using Firefox 115.38.0esr. Now for a while I've been finding it difficult to log into eBay. I'd try and log on and get this message "SORRY

Something went wrong on our end

<a varying error number>

Please go back and try again or go to eBay Homepage."

I'd go to the homepage and successfully log in. Then it took more than one try. Now I can't log in at all. I can still log in on a buying only account. It doesn't allow me to use the password, but it will accept access via text message. With the seller accounts, it doesn't give the option for access via text message only. Can this be fixed by Mozilla? I removed all extensions, and reset by PC to an earlier backup in case corruption was a cause. I've also deleted the cash.

Firefox can't connect to web sites that Chrome can. It just sits and spins in an endless loop. Windows 7 but other sites have no problem connection with firefox

An example of a site Chrome can get to but Firefox can connect to is www.lowes.com

a web site continues to say mozilla browser need update to correctly access web page. I have downloaded latest update ESR for Firebox (using windows 7 OS) But web site still says I need update! Is it me or the web site that has the problem?

My wife put Bear Share as a toolbar, We had Microsoft Essentials for our security and then we got infected by several problems all that came from using Bear Share. It has slowed down everything and I can't get rid of it. I want Google for our toolbar.

Hallo Firefox Community, ich habe seit 2 Wochen das Problem, dass ich mich mit Firefox nicht mehr auf bestimmten Seiten einloggen kann bzw. die Seiten sich bei der Anmeldung nicht mehr laden. Z.B. bei Klarna komme ich nicht mehr in meinen Account. Mein PC läuft mit Win7 Prof. SP1, das letzte Update von Mozilla lautet: Firefox 115.36.0esr (20260514164700) Details Installiert am: 20. Mai 2026 um 13:41:44 Status: Das Update wurde erfolgreich installiert

Hoffe hier hat jemand eine Erklärung dafür. Ich bin auf mein Firefox angewiesen, verwende den Browser schon eine halbe Ewigkeit. Möchte ungern auf einen anderen Browser wechseln.

Danke an alle!
