With version 33 I cannot use some web pages (version 30 still works fine.)

Some examples: Cannot order a pizza from Dominos. Cannot use finance.yahoo.com echarts. Cannot submit art to deviantart.com.

I prefer private mode. It fails. I've tried restarting with add-ons dissabled, still fails. Tried clearing cache, cookies and history to no avail.

Failure is with: 

 Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint - 1.0
 Mozilla Firefox for Linux Ubuntu -1.0, release 33

Success with Mozilla Firefox for Linux Ubuntu - 1.0, release 30.

Chosen solution

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

There might be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
