Hi, It seems I have to modify my question above, because I have just been able to read and open a "New Topic" post in my Yahoo Groups.

However, it now seems it that it just takes an age to fully load (minutes) whereas in Edge it was loaded instantly. Oddly it is only the Yahoo site that I have had this problem all other load fairly rapidly. This happens on both my desktop and laptop

Regards,

Jim

Thanks for the reply, but no change. Interesting that the problem exists on both my desktop & laptop. Does this mean its a site problem and nothing to do with Firefox. But in that case why so easy to get in with Edge?

I don't know. But some websites don't like Firefox.


Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe websites. Is the problem still there?
