Can it be a Firefox 33 bug? Thanks Hello, in our company we all use firefox (different versions) to use our CRM (SugarCRM).

I already tried to delete the profile, reinstall Firefox, clear cache, delete Profile folder, but nothing helped. Can it be a Firefox 33 bug? Thanks Chosen solution Along the lines of the last post, what happens if you stop Firefox from telling the web server that you will accept compressed files? Here's how: (1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful. (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste enco and pause while the list is filtered (3) Double-click the network.http.accept-encoding preference and (A) If it has the default value (line is not bolded), delete all of the text and click OK. (B) If it has a customized value, copy the current value to a safe place for potential later use, then delete all of the text and click OK. When you visit the site again, Firefox should omit the usual headers saying that it accepted gzip/deflate encoded responses. Any difference?
