For several years I have used Firefox as my browser. Recently I can no longer access by bank accounts. I have no problem accessing them if I go to Google Chrome and use their browser. I am able to access all my other accounts such as credit cards but for some reason Firefox no longer works for me to access my bank accounts. I have spoke to the banks and they have no clue as to why Firefox does not support their sites. Help?

Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What is/are the exact error message(s) ?


Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

While you are in safe mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
