Hello,

I seem to keep getting an access denied message when I visit some sites, typically for retail shopping sites. How do I prevent/clear those messages to proceed to my desired site? I like Firefox. It's worked well for me, but the repeated error messages are becoming frustrating.

If you're having website connection issues after a Firefox update, your third-party antivirus software, such as Avast, might be interfering with Firefox's secure connections.

We recommend uninstalling your third-party antivirus software and using the security software offered for Windows by Microsoft:

  • Windows 8 and Windows 10 - Windows Defender (built-in)
