Yes. I run Firefox ESR as well and it does not see to have
problems. Not sure what this implies about TSL certificates.

That I tend to remove the memu keeps me from exploring its
possiblities. I ran Network when accessing an eBay operation, and
don't know how to interpret the result. One thing is that loading a
gif image under show_ads.js tool took 163095650171... ms (ran out of
space to display following numbers). But its status code is green OK.
The x-xss-protection "1; mode=block" Request headers (3.157 KB) No
idea how to interpret all this.
