I subscribe to Off-Guardian.org. I receive emails with links to their latest articles. From early in May it became impossible to open the links to articles embedded in the emails. Instead, a window opened with " You have found a deprecated version of OffG". It then directed me to Off-Guardian.org. However on clicking that it sent me to the same message. Has Firefox blocked this site? If so, please explain why, and then unblock it. I am entitled to read articles from this website. Thank you

I receive emails from Off-Guardian. In the emails is a link to an article. Until early May, no problem. Then clicking on the link to the article, I was forwarded to the following address: https://offgraun.wpcomstaging.com/. This was just one page with the message about the deprecated version. Impossible to proceed. Putting Off-Guardian i Google search, I get the first result Off-Guardians normal site info: https://off-guardian.org/ When I click on the link, it takes again to offgraun.wpcomstaging.com. I am lost :-(

This sounds like a website issue. Contact their support.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

While you are in safe mode;

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.

You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History -> Show All History" or "View -> Sidebar -> History").

Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from this domain like history and cookies and passwords and exceptions and cache, so be cautious. If you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.

You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of involved files.

If you revisit a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

Maybe also do a check for malware.
