I was able to get to this site previously, but now it just sits and shows a spinning wheel. It works fine in Chrome and did previously in Firefox, but not now. Can it be added to a safe list? If so, please direct as to how, the instruction I googled is not correct, or doesn't show items as listed.

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.

I cleared all data as indicated and I had to do it twice, but was able to open site finally.
