Logging into websites
I can't remain logged-in to certain websites, for example, when I try to login to airasia.com, Firefox allows me to login, but then the page refreshes immediately and I am logged out again. This only happens to certain sites. I have tried: Disabling all add-ons Clearing cookies & history Setting options to always accept 3rd party cookies Creating a new profile Reinstalling Firefox Removing my anti-virus software
I have the same problem when I use IE. I am able to login to the site using Chrome . I am able to login to the site using Firefox on another computer.
I am using Windows 7.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support to see if that has effect in case security software is causing problems.

Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.
Make sure you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Attempted the solutions provided by the 2 respondents, but the problem remains. I reinstalled windows and firefox - the problem remains.
Remove History For One Site
Open the History Manager <Control><Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right-click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any passwords / settings.
Still no go. Could it be a plugin? It only happens on certain sites.
Hi, when you made the question you could have shared data which would have let us seen your Extensions/Add-ons
Please list what your running as well what Security Software are you running as there is sometimes issues with : Avast/AVG, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET
Try for extensions and TEST<<<<< SAFE MODE

In Firefox Safe mode these changes are effective:

- userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored (chrome folder)
- default toolbar layout is used (file: localstore-safe.rdf)
- Javascript JIT compilers are disabled (prefs: javascript.options.*jit)
- hardware acceleration is disabled (Options > Performance > Uncheck to view)
- plugins are not affected
- preferences are not affected

Sorry, double post having site loading issues.

I had tried safe mode when suggested by first poster, which did not solve the problem. I just tried it again. FYI - using MSE as AV. Extensions (which have been disabled in safe mode) - Cookie Autodelete, HTTPS Everywhere, Lightshot, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin. Would these Firefox extensions affect the page from loading on IE?

Thanks FFUs3r, but that didn't work either. I give up. Just going to use Chrome on those sites that don't work :(
firest chek if you set Firefox to never remember history
do you use normal browsing mode?
see this answer:
Does this still happen in IE as well?
Did you try to reset (power off/on) the router?
