Been using Firefox for years. Also reading Foxnews. Starting yesterday I cannot post any comments at the site. I can go to Edge and all works fine, so there is something with Firefox that is conflicting with Foxnews. At first I was not able to even read articles but removed all Addon's and that has been fixed--even after reinstalling all Addon's I can still read articles. I log into my Fox account and the webpage reflects that but when I try to post a comment it says I must sign in to post, yet I am signed in! However, I go ahead and follow the links to sign in (check e-mail/click sign in to Fox etc.), ultimately it tells me I'm now signed in. But when I go back to the comment section it still says I must sign in to post but I am signed in. Besides removing Addon's I also tried removing the FF browser (Win 10 recommended a refresh instead of uninstall so I did that). No help, I'm thinking whatever is causing the conflict when refreshing FF the sync simply puts the conflict back! I'm still requested to sign in when I am signed in! As stated earlier my Fox account in MS Edge works fine.

Did that but made no difference. Just found out I have same problem on iPhone so not a browser problem. Deleted my account with Fox several times but it never really deleted. This morning I tried on iPhone and message was "May take up to 30 days to delete." So going to wait until next month to create a new account and see what happens. Still strange though that it has always worked with no problem and it still works fine with MS Edge. But as of now I'm still logged in to Fox in Edge so if account is deleted at some time I will assume that Edge will quit working also.

But thanks anyway for the reply.
