Why am I getting an error message when i view google.com in mozilla firefox browser?

Question

Lately, I have noticed that when i am using my default browser of mozilla firefox, it will not let me go to google.com, youtube.com, and when i am on facebook.com, it keeps logging me out constantly. If I use internet explorer, all of these websites work fine. What is wrong with my firefox?

The error message says: Google error. Request entity too large. Your client issued a request that was too large.

Answer 1

This is usually caused by an excessive accumulation of large cookies. Your browser sends all the relevant cookies in every request, and this can push a request over the 4KB limit.



From Firefox, select Tools, then Options, then Privacy, then 'remove individual cookies'. Click on 'google.com' and hit the 'remove cookies' button then repeat for 'facebook.com'. See if that solves your problem.



This is actually a growing problem with the increased use of cookies and the increase used of 'central' sites whose cookies relate to pages on multiple sites. Everyone adds 'just one more cookie' to their site design and links their site to other sites (like the Facebook 'like' buttons and so on). The request grows and eventually exceeds what the web server will accept. There is no good solution yet.



While you're there. Hit the 'Advanced' tab. In the 'Network' pane, hit the 'Settings' button under Connection. Make sure you're not configured to use a proxy unless you know that you're supposed to be. The proxy might be adding something to the request that helps push it over the limit.
