Hi all,

Mods please move if in the wrong place. I've noticed this afternoon that some websites such as boards.ie will not load on firefox. I've done the usual troubleshooting including rolling the pc back to an earlier date.

Other websites will load but not work correctly.

Is it time to change browsers? I'm writing this on edge.

Any help appreciated for a complete technophobe.

TIA

Working 100% OK here on the latest Firefox.

So is it my brand new laptop acting up suddenly after 6 weeks do you think?

Same problem for me, just a blank page. Cleared all the cookies and cached data but still a blank page.

But if I open it in a private browsing window it's fine.

Thanks for that. Just tried there and it works in private browsing. Sorry to say but I'm glad somebody else is having the same issue.

Working normally for me in Firefox, latest build with a plethora of ad blocking and privacy extensions installed.

All fine for me too. I am also using latest firefox release with just UBlockOrigin.

Tested my plugins and it's adBlocker Ultimate which is causing the problem for me.

I use ublock origin too.

Thank you so much. Tried that and it works. Wonder why it stopped the websites working all of a sudden.

Last update of the plugin was in May, so strange that it only caused the issue today. I plan to leave it disabled for now. Might enable it again in a few days to see if anything changes.
