Firefox stopped working with SlickDeals a few days ago

Everything was fine and normal using my main browser Firefox until a few days ago going to Slick Deals I guess my cookie was not read and I was logged out and when trying to log in, instead of seeing the log in box to enter my email, clicking the top right corner SIGN IN icon, I am sent to the main Slick Deals home page.

I can read the forums and deal posts, but not logged in. From any page, if I click SIGN IN in the top corner, I go to the SD home page and there is no box, no way to sign in.

If already on the home page, clicking the SIGN IN icon does nothing.

I am writing this message using Chrome, but I don't ever use Chrome to read SD because read-link colors do not change to make a history.

Does it work in private mode? I just tried and it worked for me so I'm wondering if perhaps an extension is blocking something.

It is perhaps not the most intuitive but when you click the "sign up" button on the top right of the page it should open an overlaid window with the option to either create an account, or to click a link to log in with your existing one.

When I click the SIGN UP button I go from where I am (/forums/) to this URL: https://slickdeals.net/ and there is no overlay.
