Synchrony Bank Login
After upgrading to Firefox version 103.0 on Windows 10 I am no longer able to Login to https://auth.synchronybank.com/account/login . After entering my User ID and Password I stay on the Login screen with the gear spinning for several minutes then receive the error screen shown in the attached image. Clicking on Try Again" on the error screen produces the same error. Please correct ASAP.
Note that the Login from https://auth.synchronybank.com/account/login completes successfully using the Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge browsers.

I am using VIPRE Advanced Security.
The first thing I tried was to test the Login in Safe Mode. I was able to Login several times from within Safe Mode. I then turned off Troubleshoot Mode and successfully logged in with all add-ons, etc. enabled. I then restarted the PC and once again was able to Login to Synchrony Bank.
I am glad that the problem is solved but am puzzled as to what the fix was. Was there some corruption that got cleared by running in Safe Mode? Please comment.
