When I try to sign into live TV streaming such as "Foxnews" I get the screen that has all the different system (Comcast, ATT Uverse Direct TV) to choose. I choose my ATT Uverse and it asks me to wait and that the page I am accessing is not encrypted and I choose OK..then it takes me right back to the same page as mentioned above. I have the most recent version of Flash Player, Java, shockwave and Silverlight installed...I can sign in and access live streaming using Internet explore but not Firefox. Window 7

Hello,

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache. Note: This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to. To clear cache and cookies do the following:

  1. Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
  2. Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
  3. Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
  4. From the details list, check Cache and Cookies and uncheck everything else.
  5. Now click the Clear now button.

Further information can be found in the Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox article.

Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Thank you.
