Thanks Merc for helping with my SF pw rest. This will be my last post on this issue (for now anyway). Summary: I googled and found this problem goes all the way back to 2012! Mozilla support forums have many guys cribbing about this. Many suggestions are given; I tried them, but none worked...

Thanks Handy. I got the pw reset email, but when I clicked on the link, it went to SF where the page said "Oops! Something went wrong. Request pw reset again" or some such. So I did, and it worked this time.

How do I create a fresh user account? Just create a new user? I uninstalled as much as I could; it keeps insisting a reinstall will fix things. After uninstall, I deleted most Registry entries that had Firefox or Mozilla in their names. Re-installed. Mixed results. SF loaded fast. Other...

This started happening recently. I'll try a complete uninstall of FF and full re-install. For DNS over HTTPS, I even set it to Off, made no difference. Any time it needs to look up is when it chokes. For info, CPU is a Ryzen 9 5900x 12 core, 64GB of RAM.

There's a gazillion different meds for BP; what suits one person won't suit another, that's why. Weight loss helps in numerous ways, but is so hard to achieve.

Maybe an update did it, but for the past few weeks FF has been extremely slow. Takes minutes to load a web page. Chrome does it in under a second. I uninstalled and re-installed but that didn't help; though it did say it is preserving my settings, bookmarks etc. I don't remember seeing an option...

So sorry to hear, Handy. I wish your cat the best. Having had cats ourselves and having lost them, I feel the pain. We miss them terribly, but we couldn't travel much when we had them. So despite yearning for them, we have steeled ourselves to not adopt. Co-incidentally, we've been traveling a...

Two Windows vulnerabilities, one a 0-day, are under active exploitation

Donnie missed the key word; it's the most Beautiful govt. shutdown ever!

Sad state of affairs, indeed. How the mighty have fallen. :cry: Hope you will be able to fly in time for your milestone birthday, Merc. Wish you every happiness!

SF is very slow at this time. I tried about an hour and a half back, it wouldn't even load. Just letting you know, Handy.

Crazy!

Thanks Merc.
