Well then I apologize for my lack of technical prowess and thank you for the explanation!  Cheesy  WHATEVER the technical reason the result is the same.  Changing the new Firefox DEFAULT setting fixed it. That's all that matters to me.  Cheesy


When Firefox was set by default like this:






I get this:






When i changed it to this:

I get this:














Firefox is using CLOUDFARE as an automatic proxy.

Firefox is not using cloudflare as an "automatic proxy".
Firefox does support DNS-over-HTTPS. When enabling, you can chose which server to use. And Cloudflares DNS server is the default one. But that's not a proxy.

That's an encrypted way to resolve domains to IP addresses (without being visible for everyone).



ARCHIVE.IS doesn't seem to like that.

The website does NOT know how you gathered the IP.
It is the DNS servers fault. This has nothing to do with archive.is or any other website.

You also need to restart Firefox to apply the change, as it will appear that nothing has changed if you just apply the setting before restarting.

If you are having a problem accessing the ARCHIVE.IS webpage archive site (and probably some others)  and are using the latest update of Firefox (76.0.1) here is the fix.  Firefox is using CLOUDFARE as an automatic proxy.  ARCHIVE.IS doesn't seem to like that.

Go into TOOLS, OPTIONS and scroll down to the bottom of the screen to NETWORK SETTINGS and disable (or change) the Firefox Proxy.
