I get emails from Classmates.com that have urls to visit their site. Those urls just bring up a Google Search screen on Firefox. They work properly on Chrome. An example is:

It's puzzling. When I follow that link, the server sends back a redirect to http://www.google.com/

In my case, I might suspect this is because I'm not logged into the site -- which the site could detected by the cookies sent with my request -- and so I'm not supposed to access that link. However, why would they send me to Google instead of their login page??

I think it's a good question to raise with the site if you have an account there.

Thanks. Note though, that this does not happen when I paste this url into Chrome. This makes me think that Firefox is doing something.

Hi, please test in : SAFE MODE

In Firefox Safe mode these changes are effective:

  • all extensions are disabled (about:addons)
  • default theme is used (no persona)
  • 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

TEST''''is issue still there ?
