Websites Saying "Access Denied"

When I enter a site like Sephora, Menards, Ulta, and Target I either automatically get an Access Denied error or get one when I try to navigate from the home page. These websites also either won't let me log in to an account or will immediately kick me out of my account after logging in. I've tried everything I could find online and nothing has helped. I am on the latest Firefox software.

Here is an example of the error message: Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.sephora.com/shop/makeup-cosmetics" on this server.

"You don't have permission to access..." errors are characteristic of a firewall that protects the server against misuse and this firewall thinks something is suspicious about the HTTP request. If you use a proxy or VPN, try to use a direct connection. Select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.

  • Settings -> General -> Network -> Connection -> Settings

You can try to clear the Cache and remove the Cookies for websites that cause problems via the padlock button or via "3-bar" Firefox menu button (Settings) to see if that fixes it.

I've seen cases where having enabled Resist Fingerprinting was causing this issue.

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if an extension is causing the problem.

If this all doesn't work, try "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history item. Note that this might remove saved passwords for this website, so make a note if you have any.
