FF won't open some major websites, so I'm switching to Chrome
I can't get at my account, or even the site itself, in eBay. I fill in my details (name and PW), press next, and I get a "captcha loading" note at the top of the page (see attached), and that's the end of it. That screen will stay up for weeks if I let it. No captcha, no destination website ever appears. Nor can I get to my bank website. I was willing to simply use a different browser for that, and stick to FF, but why bother? I'm tired of fighting with Firefox.

Hi, try turning off 'Enhanced Tracking Protection' in Firefox by clicking the shield icon at the left-hand end of the address bar when you are on the site - Enhanced Tracking Protection in Firefox for desktop
If that doesn't help, disable any ad blocker you may be using then reload the site.
Try deleting ALL references to eBay (if this works, you might need to do it for your banking site as well). To do that, open the 3-bar menu > Library > History, then click the Show All History link at the bottom of the list to open the History-library window. Search for eBay by typing it into the Search History field in the top-right corner. Now in the search results, right-click on eBay, and select Forget About This Site. (Browsing and download history, cookies, cache, active logins, passwords, saved form data, exceptions for cookies, images and pop-ups for that site will be removed). Give it a few minutes to complete the deletion, then try the site (not from an old bookmark) again. More - Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox.
Hold down the Option key when you start Firefox to start in Safe Mode. More - Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.
If it works in Safe Mode, disable any theme or extensions you have - 3-bar menu > Add-ons > Themes/Extensions, then restart Firefox; now if it's still OK, re-enable them one by one until you find the culprit. You may need to restart Firefox after enabling some extensions.

Make sure you are not blocking content.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click
Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?
