Hi

What page gives you this error ?

It is possible that you get this because you have disabled some essential features in Firefox.


You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:

You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

Clear the Cache and remove the Cookies for websites that cause problems via the "3-bar" Firefox menu button (Options/Preferences).

"Remove the Cookies" for websites that cause problems:

  • Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
    Cookies and Site Data: "Manage Data"

"Clear the Cache":

  • Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
    Cookies and Site Data -> Clear Data -> Cached Web Content: Clear

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window

It is the normal/usual login page of GMX Germany (Email Account): https://www.gmx.net/ It worked with FF79 (and earlier) very well!

i have an account on that site as well but no problems on login with current versions of firefox, so i don't think it's a general problem with the browser or new versions. have you tried the various troubleshooting options that cor-el has recommended before?

I tried all the troubleshooting options by cor-el --- no solution. Login worked with FF79 (and earlier - same preferences) very well and now on OPERA and PALE MOON 28.12.0 too. Thats the end of using FIREFOX!
