I get this recurring error when I access this site: "https://nikonrumors.com/". The issue comes and goes. May work fine for days/weeks.

Here's the kicker: MS Edge & Google Chrome do not have this issue. When it isn't working with Firefox 90.0.2 (win10), it always works with Edge & Chrome, like now as I post this.

See image, thanks, Bruce

sec_error_ocsp_old_response make sure that your system clock is set to the right date, time & timezone

System clock is checked and correct. If I set the date to yesterday it solves the issue until I set the clock to the correct date. Looks like a certificate or some such thing has an expiration date. However, note that Chrome & Edge work just fine.

That does resolve the issue but is turning that off a safe idea? Best to have them fix their certificate?

Thanks for the help, Bruce

If that fixes the issue, that tells us something.
