Telephone confirmation on Paypal

Anyone want to try something tough...? I find that the telephone confirmation system for ID checking used by Paypal does not work with Firefox. It used to, but now it won't. The system offers to call you, putting you up a number of the screen, and then calls you to get you to put that number into the keypad on your phone. It used to work fine, and validation was not an issue. There is no problem when using Chrome, but only with Firefox. There is some sort of issue with the connection as, when using Firefox, Paypal's computer does not seem to 'hear' the numbers entered on my phone, then suddenly, unasked, another code appears!

Anyone had this? Justin
