Re: Problem accessing some https sites

I've had a problem accessing some https sites a few times.
In two of those cases, it turned out that I had updated
firefox with a firefox session open.  That firefox session
gave me strange errors on https sites.  Finally, I figured
out that exiting and restarting firefox seems to be
necessary after an update.  It wasn't always obvious to
me because I'd done the update a day earlier but hadn't
gone to any https sites since the update.

Hi, Jacques and others,
	I am having a similar problem, but the window scaling didn't fix the
issue.  As I read the information in the link, I saw that they had ECN
disabled.  However, I didn't see how or where to do that.  Can someone
please tell me where that control exists?

Regards,
Les H
