The latest update to Pale Moon Version: 32.0.1 (64-bit) has broken access to accounts on www.tesco.com, it was working fine prior to the update but now denies access.

They're clearly serving malformed XML but sure, that's Pale Moon's fault. It's not as though website developers keep screwing around with the latest framework implementing the latest shiny crap shoved into Chrome, after all - while doing nothing for the website in terms of visual changes, let alone adding useful features for its users.

The incorrect XML comes from an SVG from startpage.com? :think:

And who on earth creates webpages in current year without declaring character encoding?

Just a heads up, it seems to be working OK now.
