Since my move to a new PC running Windows 10 64 bit and with the latest version of FF a couple of websites that I frequent no longer work. They will work in MS Edge, but not Firefox. These two websites are Redbox.com and Vegas.com For Redbox their system can not seem to retain my login information during a session. Each thing I try to do asks me to reenter my log-in info. Can no longer rent movies. For Vegas.com, if I try to look at Air/Hotel packages the website always skips the pick a hotel and pick a flight steps and goes right to the option to pick a show to see. Again, this does not happen if I use MS Edge. What could be going wrong with FF new attention to privacy and security that is breaking these sites. I have shut off Content Blocking on both of these sites already

Hi jrmoob, have you experimented with your Ghostery settings? When you're on a site that's acting strangely, check whether the Ghostery button let's you make a temporary or permanent exception for the site.

I had already set the Vegas.com to be a trusted site in Ghostery, but based on your comment I paused Ghostery and the Hotel selection step appeared on screen. I will see later if this is a stable work around. Have not had time to try your other suggestion for Redbox yet.

Thanks
