Just updated Firefox and now I can't open birdforum anymore. I always get the error message "content-encoding error". So I tried the same in Google Chrome and I get the same problem ("content decoding failed"). Still works in Safari however.
Anyone having the same problems? Rather annoying.

Viewing this through Chrome at the moment. Haven't had any issues.

Grrr.... how frustrating for you André!

Maybe ask in the Firefox Forum: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38

.... or perhaps try Firefox's sister forum PaleMoon meantime?

Given that you mentioned Safari I'll assume for a moment that you're on a Mac and...Chrome working fine here (Version 55.0.2883.95 (64-bit) under OS X 10.9.5).

I have no problems with latest versions of both Firefoxx and Chrome, (Windows 10).

Thanks everyone. The problem resolved after I deleted a ad-blocker which obviously caused the problem.
