Mozillazine.org, Allowed but not getting past Anubis

FF 115.33.0esr
Win7 x64

so this weird.

close FF.
open FF (& restore session)

one of my tabs is https://www.mozillazine.org
mozillazine.org uses Anubis.

in my restored tab, typically the page always displays - regardless of JavaScript, regardless of Anubis.
it does this, i suppose, simply because of stored page history.
i don't interact with the page - except to open mozillazine in a new window.
(now, that new window does require JS, for Anubis.)

today, after my close, open (& restore), for whatever reason (maybe stale cookie?) the restored mozillazine tab did open to the Anubis page, stating that i did need JS (& JS was not enabled). & i'm like, no big deal, & i enable JS, but... the icon didn't look right, & the page still did not get past Anubis. & i allow all on the page, still Anubis. & i allow globally, still Anubis.

Revoke All.

open a new window, https://mozillazine.org, Anubis, Allow mozillazine.org, & mozillazine.org loads as expected.

at that point, i go back to my originally restored tab, refresh the page, & it loads (as i had "passed" Anubis from the step above, mozillazine was still allowed).

then, in my original tab, i 'clear cookies & site data'. Allow mozillazine. icon is still wrong looking, & cannot bypass Anubis.

open a new window, load mozillazine & it loads.

go back to my original tab, refresh the page, & it loads.
& with that, i'm not sure just what the icon is showing?


same Profile, same settings, (virtually) same restored tabs, for ages now.
yet today, i happened to close, re-open, & something changed?

1. JS blocked
2. Temporarily Allow all on page (& icon looks wrong)
3. mozillazine.org is Allowed, google.com is not
& in this tab, if i clear Cookies, with mozillazine.org Allowed, i cannot get past Anubis ?

Is there any outstanding error message shown in the console (ctrl+shift+K)?

Just tried in a VM.
I can consistently get the Anubis probe if I open mozillazine in a private window, but I always pass it.

1. mozillazine is Allowed, yet i cannot get past Anubis
- this happens (now, today) in this particular tab

at that point, i open a new window, mozillazine is still Allowed, i load mozillazine & the page loads as expected.

(this is the "Loading failed" url from 1.
https://forums.mozillazine.org/.within. ... ter=1.25.0)


2. i've refreshed the page, & (presumably from the cookie generated in the above 'new window', so now, the page in the tab, that particular tab, does load as expected

at that point, if i clear cookies, & refresh the page in the tab, i am still stuck at Anubis - even though mozillazine has been Allowed throughout
