Only recently, when trying to open a website, I get the message "This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them." What do I do?

Multiple sites/URLs affected.

Icon boxes displayed in front of websites on tabs and in bookmarks usually have a picture, now for the affected sites they have a dotted box outline only.

For a web page I check daily: http://75.111.49.196:3398/ This is how the page is displayed:

<html><head><title>Camel Rock Surf Cam Control</title>
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="120;URL=http://www.camelrocksurfcam.com/index.htm">
</head>
<frameset rows="240,180*" framespacing="0" border="0" frameborder="0" scrolling="no">	
  <frameset cols="50%,352,50%" frameborder="0" >
    <frame name="main0" src="new_page_3.htm" target="_self" scrolling="no">
    <frame name="main1" src="new_page_2.htm" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no">

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.

  • Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
