Using firefox Mozilla, I can go on costco.com website but unable to search for a product. I am unable to type in my desired product. Once I attempt to enter a name of product in search box, my computer freezes up and I have to shut the computer down. However, I can shop and order on Amazon using Mozilla with no problems.

I can shop on costco.com using Chrome, but I hate Chrome and love Firefox
