I tried Guitar Center webpage, for me the message telling that "browser is unsupported" shows up for a few seconds an then disappears.

cpreiss, which add ons do you have installed? Especially ad blockers need to have their filter lists kept up-to-date. Are add-on-versions checked against this list: https://addons.palemoon.org/incompatible/

Some of your add ons are not listet here https://addons.palemoon.org/extensions/ which should not be problematic per se, but who knows.

You may try once more without those ("Download Youtube", "Hootsuite", "Menu Wizard", both "Tab Button"-add-ons, "Xmark").

It also seems to require local storage enabled: dom.storage.enabled = true

The guitar center site is sniffing user agents.

I got the "unsupported browser" stuff using Native mode (which I normally use) - But not with Gecko Compatibility or Firefox Compatibility modes:
Preferences > Advanced > General tab > Compatibility, User Agent Mode: (choose from drop down menu)
compatmodes.png
Since you use guitarcenter.com regularly, you might want to create a user agent override for it (more here).
You can use your own FFcompat user agent for the string (activate Firefox Compatibility, then open about:support to copy the string displayed there).

Just so you know, in Customize mode, you can move the new tab button to a different toolbar, without two add-ons!

these are the two problems i need

on paypal after typing in your password, im not prompted to save it. i have to enter my passwords for most sites everytime

this plugin, which is the only reason i use pale moon, which ive used everyday now for over a year. seems to be conflicting with getty, the search. i just updated pale moon from an older version. i have a celebrity pic site and use getty to find the names of events, the venue, or city and state, country

ImageHost Grabber v1.7.0.4b

firefox i think doesnt allow unsigned addons or something anymore, it wont work on it. its the only decent pic downloader for mac. like hundreds of pics at a time. if i disable the addon the search on getty works

Have you checked what you have Preferences > Security > Passwords > Remember passwords for sites and Automatically fill in log-in details set to?
