    What have I done to Firefox?

    Or more likely what did my cats probably do while walking across my keyboard as they somehow hit shortcuts I have never seen before on a regular basis. On one computer in my house, I can now only see this site in its whatever 1970's white background, black text, blue links form. It is only this site, only on firefox, and only at this computer. All other sites appear as they are supposed to. This site appears fine on other computers and on the same computer when I use Chrome instead of Firefox. I am baffled by this by something must have changed in my settings somewhere or the other.

    Any clue?

    It usually happens when the site is experiencing issues which prevent it from loading properly. My personal website sometimes looks like that when the host is under a denial of service (DoS) attack. Clearing Firefox's cache may solve the problem.

    Clear the cookies and cache

    Firefox caches websites, which means it saves some files on your machine so that it doesn't have to re-download everything when you visit sites. If a website has updated their code, Firefox may still be using some of the old code along with some of the new, which can make a web page display incorrectly. To fix this, you need to clear the cookies and cache:
    1. Click the Library button , click History and select Clear Recent History….
    2. In the Time Range to clear: drop-down, select Everything.
    3. Click the arrow next to Details to display the list of items that can be cleared.
    4. Select both Cookies and Cache.
    5. Click Clear Now.

    Looks like your client turned on a menu list for the forum. Likely not Firefox's issue. Other web-browsers can do that too.

    I use to use Opera- loved it. It was bought by a Chinese company. Once I found out I immediately deleted it from all of my devices. I am certain Opera is now a spy device for China.
