Firefox will not load Facebook. This is the only site that will not load. Why?
I did a refresh of Firefox and still nothing. Running OS X Yosemite on a MAC. Works fine with all other browsers.

This Connection is Untrusted is sometimes caused because the computer system clock is wrong. Check the time / date / time zone settings.
Tried all of them. Still the same issue. Only Facebook. Only Firefox.
The address bar shows Facebook, but the page is completely blank. No error message, just a white page.

I appreciate all your attempts to help Fred, but nothing has worked. I get to the facebook login screen ·since I've cleared cache/cookies) but when I enter my info it STILL takes me to a blank page!
I have no problems with any other browser or on my iPhone and iPad. Just my Mac desktop.
I've called the big guys to help you. Good luck.
Now I cannot get Facebook on ANY browser ·FF, Chrome, Safari).
I can get the login page, then when I login, it goes to a blank white page with the https facebook.com url still in the address bar.
You can check the Net log and the Network log in the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) to see if content fails to load or possibly is blocked (file size is zero).
Use Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl+Shift+R to reload the page and bypass the cache to generate a fresh log.
Try to disable IPv6 (check for other possible causes as well).
While I can create/get the net log, I have no idea what the information there means. Other than seeing a green dot with 200 OK (that appears to mean it reached the site, best I can tell) it still does me no good. Since it is now on all browsers, I did not try disabling lPv6.
