i am attempting to play a movie through Netflix and i have an error message that states my InPrivate Browsing is on, but it is disabled. I contacted Netflix and they do not have an answer. Is there an embedded or default for InPrivate Browsing?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
