Latest version 99.0 is causing problems with Amazon order lookup page
After updating to the latest version 99.0, my Amazon order lookup page is stuck in a loop while trying to load the page - it tries to load the page over and over again. This doesn't happen with Google Chrome or MS Edge browsers. Also, other Amazon pages seem to work OK. I've tried restarting my computer, clear the cache, and start Firefox in troubleshooting mode, but none worked. Any ideas on what's going on and how to fix this?

What security software are you running? You may need to try Windows in Safe Mode with networking.
Make sure you are not blocking content.

Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

- How to clear the Firefox cache {web link}
Thanks to everyone for your quick responses.
Points of info:
Security software: I'm just using Microsoft's standard security suite that came with Windows 10.
Site blocking and tracking protection: Just standard settings provided by Firefox and DuckDuckGo. Nothing special.
Firefox worked fine until latest version update. Problem only showed up after latest update. Google Chrome and MS Edge with DuckDuckGo work fine. I'd tried clearing Firefox cache and cookies, but didn't do anything. Also, ran troubleshooting mode and rebooting my computer yielded no favorable result. Interesting thing, however, it'd mysteriously fixed itself this morning. Not sure how or why, but my Amazon order lookup page (as well as WalMart's in-page links) are now working as they should. Must have been those pesky gremlins!
As long as the problem is gone.
