https://tools.pingdom.com will only load in safe mode
I use https://tools.pingdom.com several times a day. They just redesigned this site and it now locks up FF *UNLESS* FF is in safe mode.
I disabled all add-ons. This page still locks up FF unless I go to it in safe mode.
I then refreshed FF and this page still locks up FF unless I go to it in safe mode.
This last one really surprised me. What's the difference in a newly refreshed FF and FF in safe mode?
Anyway, is anybody else seeing this or have any suggestions?

Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings
If you're having problems with Firefox, refreshing it can help. The refresh feature fixes many issues by restoring Firefox to its default state while saving your essential information like bookmarks, passwords, and open tabs.

Just getting the page to load (or finish loading to be precise) was the problem.
I had already tried both Safe Mode and Refreshing Firefox. Even after refreshing, the page would only load in Safe Mode.
However, turning off (unchecking) Use Hardware Acceleration did the trick.
I guess Safe Mode must automatically turn off Use Hardware Acceleration?
Glad your problem is fixed. Safe surfing.
Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes). If the problem goes away, that tells us one thing. If it does not, that tells us something else.
