Dear Firefox Community,

my ff browser won't open the following websites:

https://www.haaretz.com/ (here it says: Error 54113) and https://archive.ph/ (this won't open at all without any notification)

Could you please let me know how get them to open?

Thank you!

The first loads for me without any apparent issue. The second loads but asks for a "security check" before allowing me to proceed.

You could try clearing the cache then deleting Cookies. If that doesn't work, try right-clicking the site in History then Forget about this site. Make sure you have a backup record of your user name and password before doing that because they will be forgotten also.

If none of those fixes the issue, try restarting in troubleshoot mode.

If all that fails, try creating another profile. In the first article linked below there are sections telling you how to open the profile manager with Firefox open or closed.

The archive site is not compatible with Cloudflare DNS, you can switch secure DNS over HTTPS (DoH) to "Max Protection" and select NextDNS instead.
