Version 28.17.0 (32 Bit)
Previously I have been able to sign into my bank account. Today I tried it and I entered my username, then I am supposed to be sent to a password page. This fails with "Secure Connection Failed", then "Confirm:Resend". Then I end up back at the original sign in page, in a continuous loop.
I tried Firefox V56.02 and it works just like Pale Moon used to.
Ideas anyone?

Re: watertownsavingsbank.com/ can't sign in
Maybe the connection is really not secure.
Since Firefox 52 was released, Pale Moon periodically upgraded its security measures, so if the bank is using insecure stuff, the browser will not let you connect to it.
Maybe toss the problem at the bank too.
I mean, I know that "it works on browser <not Pale Moon>" is enough to dismiss any issue, but you also have to understand that those browsers might intentionally give you an insecure connection with a bank, which is an entity supposed to be secure.

Re: watertownsavingsbank.com/ can't sign in
Seems to be a problem with netteller.com (which your bank uses for authentication) -- their SSL security is fine but it gets into a redirect loop for some reason and aborts. Nothing we can do anything about, as far as I can tell.

Re: watertownsavingsbank.com/ can't sign in
You can try to see if the following override works for you? I managed to get a password prompt with it.
Code: Select all

One of my banks also uses netteller. I can confirm that this UA override works on my end. But why?

Probably because it chokes up on "unknown" UAs. Crap coding.

Re: watertownsavingsbank.com/ can't sign in
I guess they updated something on their end relatively recently, because it had been working fine for quite a while until now.
For what it's worth, I did some testing and the site seemed happy enough with other versions of FF in the override, so hopefully we won't need to chase UAs with this one. Thanks MC.

Re: watertownsavingsbank.com/ can't sign in
I've added it to the default overrides and will drop it in the dynamic overrides in the meantime.
