Trying to sign in to the PBS website. I get a box which allows me to sign in with Facebook, Google+, or PBS by clicking on the logo of the service that I want to use. Unfortunately, I can click on any of them all day and nothing happens. Clicking on them works fine in Chrome. I've checked that domain storage is 'true'. I've made 'always accept' exceptions for cookies from the site. Still doesn't work. Ideas??

That enabled me to find the problem: DoNotTrackMe was the culprit. Unfortunately, with it loaded into Firefox but with e-mail and tracking UNblocked, the PBS window still won't open. Something to do with DoNotTrackMe, and I don't see any way to 'allow' a website in the DNTMe add-on. Thanks.

Try to Start Firefox in Safe Mode. Let us know how you do.
