 The problem is that I need to know which part of Tor Browser the culprit
 is. It could be Tor, the browser or something else. If your vanilla
 Firefox + Tor has the same problem but not the Firefox without it, I'd
 start looking closer at Tor. If not, closer at the browser within Tor
 Browser. So, you could open your Tor Browser as usual and then your
 Firefox as usual. In the latter go to Preferences -> Advanced -> Network
 -> Settings... and enter "127.0.0.1" in the SOCKS Host: box and "9150"
 (both without the quotes) in the respective Port: box. Then check the
 Remote DNS option, click okay and try to reproduce the problem in your
 Firefox.
