Make sure you are not blocking content.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
One issue that seems more common lately is Firefox's Tracking Protection feature. When it is blocking content in a page, a shield icon will appear at the left end of the address bar next to the padlock icon. This article has more info on managing this feature: Tracking Protection {web link}
Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What is the exact error messages?
Hi Fred,
I started Firefox in Safe Mode & it Seems to solve my Problem ,as whilst it was in Safe Mode,I went onto ESET Banking Protection & it worked OK
To try & prove it,I restarted Firefox & then went on ESET Banking Protection & the problem came back
The Add Ons I have are
Vpn Browsec,Hotspot Shield Vpn (very rarely Used),Setup Vpn (again very rarely used
Plug ins,Open H264 Video Codex by Mozilla,Widevine Content Decryption Module,Shockwave Flash
What do you think is my Problem????
Thanks
Darryl.Smith.
Did you check out the Tracking Protection link I posted?
Hi Fred,Yes I did, the below are my following settings Choose what to Block;None Ticked Third Party Cookies Ticked Trackers (Recommended) Do Not Track Ticked only when Firefox is set to Block Detected Trackers Hopefully I have set the correct Settings???? Thanks Darryl.Smith,

It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or it could be Hardware Acceleration. How to disable Hardware Acceleration {web link}
Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)
In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Disable a few add-ons, then Restart Firefox.
Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All Of them.
If the problem continues, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until the problem is gone. After, you know what group is causing the issue. Re-enable the last group ONE AT A TIME (restarting FF) until the problem returns.
Once you think you found the problem, disable that and re-enable all the others, then restart again. Let us know who the suspect is, detective.

You need to contact ESET if their software is causing issues with Firefox 65. If they add components to Firefox or otherwise interfere with Firefox then it is their responsibility to keep their software working properly.
