problems with redirects
Using Fire Fox 13.0.1 and Vista
When I attempt to log in to various accounts > I enter log in info > click log in and blank page, nothing happens - not redirecting. This is happening with email accounts, paypal account, etc. In other words no one site in particular
Never any error messages, just blank page(s) and no connection. Happens when clicking links in trusted emails as well.
Basically resorting to using IE to overcome this - which bothers me to no end.

Does this only happen with secure https connections?
It happens with https and http sites...
Did you check the above posted Knowledge Base article?
Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

Start Firefox in Safe 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).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
