Specific (Google-owned) website won't open
The following web address won't open up in my FireFox while it does on Chrome What can be the reason? The parent website that leads to this page does open up but when clicking on the link at the top right corner showing Message for Web an empty browser window open up. I cleared all cookies and cache in both Chrome and FireFox browsers.

While you are in safe mode;
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.

Update: I haven't tried the Safe Mode yet, however, the problem doesn't occur in the Firefox running on my laptop (Windows 10 Pro 64-bit).
