Recently I started getting this error when I would click on a link; it is not always the same but various unrelated links.

"Secure Connection Failed. An error occurred during a connection to click.patriotpoweredpublishing.com. PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

Error code: PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

No. I do not have Kaspersky AV but use Malwarebytes. I don't have this problem when I use a different browser. Only with Firefox. appleone8150@yahoo.com

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.

  • switch to the Default System theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support to see if that has effect.

Try changing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) to "Off" or "Max Protection" and in Connection Settings change "Use system proxy settings" to "No proxy".
