It is so irritating that I can't get to DU without shutting down my VPN.

This doesn't happen ALL the time and ONLY happens with Firefox. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
I have no issues with any other sites or addresses.

Weird, I have an Avast VPN that I use for all exterior connections. Never an issue. OAITW r.2.0 Feb 4 #1

I tried Opera a long time ago. Not sure why I didn't continue. Ferrets are Cool Feb 4 #2

VPN connections break. My Avast does, anyway. OAITW r.2.0 Feb 4 #3

I have used Firefox forever. I like it. I can actually use the vpn using Google, but I just hate doing so.
And the frustrating part is that it's only a part time thing. Many times the vpn/firefox works fine here. Go figure.
