Issue

Firefox is having problems with certain web sites

Description

On a certain website, I like to work in tabs. I mainly am on the forums, and will have multiple threads up on tabs. However lately, every time I open a tab I get logged out.

If I stay and work in ONE tab I am fine, but if I open a second tab I am automatically logged out.

I have cleared cache, cookies, and all browsing history. I have gone in and deleted/renamed the cookies.sqlite file, restarted Firefox, and that still doesn't help. I upgraded to the newest version of Firefox, and still doesn't work right.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions. You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I tried that and it still does the same thing. It still refuses to keep me logged in when I use tabs.
