LinkedIn not loading in Firefox but loading in Safari; cookies/cache/history cleared to no avail
I am unable to login to LinkedIn from Firefox 57.0. I'm using an iMac with High Sierra. I am able to login to LinkedIn using Safari or from my MacBook using Firefox 57.0. I've cleared the cookies, cache, and history but it has not worked. When I clear the c, c, and Hx, the login page loads but once I put in my username and PW and hit login, LinkedIn never loads. It just twirls. Not sure what else to try because it seems that it is isolated to Firefox on the iMac. Not likely a LinkedIn issue because I can access it from Safari and other devices using Firefox. I also removed Firefox and downloaded it again to see if that would work but it did not. Any help anyone can provide would be appreciated.

There is security software like Avast, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connections and send their own certificate.

I'm unclear what you are asking for, re: "public link(s)." Please clarify. I'm trying to access https://www.linkedin.com/.
WFM. Could you try to login in the Private window?

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). Is the problem still there?
Starting in Safe Mode did not resolve the problem. Any other suggestions? I reached out to LiinkedIn but it doesn't seem to be a LinkedIn issue because I can access LinkedIn from Safari from the same iMac. I can also access LinkedIn from my MacBook using Firefox. It seems to be isolated to the Firefox on the iMac.

That means that Firefox itself may not be the problem.
Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Safe websites. Is the problem still there?
