The community specialist is as clueless as they are usually are when

incorrect browser sniffing period. When you remove Firefox
compatibility they fall back to another code path which works. If you
remove Firefox it will work for google and break countless other sites.

You may try to explain at Google that he must accept TWO differents
Browser ID in the same UA string - GOOD LUCK ! :-)

This not because other sites needs FF id that SM must have two id 
You must convince other site to accept SM by itself !


Or, as I understand it, get them to accept "Gecko" as the id. That 
would cover FF, SM and several other browsers as well!


Geeko is Gecko  http://geckoisgecko.org/

Gecko IS NOT A BROWSER ...They don't care about these thing  They 
just need to know which browser you use.


IF Gecko is the solution .. ALL browsers using it MUST have ONLY "Geeko" 
in their UA string - nothing else.

Ah, https://www.google.com/search?q=Pawn%2Bshops%2Bspokane 's blue

shows
a lot of datas so it is downloading, but not displaying it. 64-bit 
W7's

IE11 had no problems. I tried disabling cookies, send referrers, and
uBlock Origin extension. None of them fixed it. But ONE change did, 
user

agent ("Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:54.0) Gecko/20100101

And Ron, the Community Specialist, blames it on SM. Uh, no.
Your reply "No. This would be Google's fault for sniffing the web 
browser's user agents incorrectly." will not be take in consideration, 
because they think that they are the best so the problem MUST be 
in your browser.
Turning off "Advertise Firefox Compatibility" at Edit > Preferences > 
Advanced > HTTP Networking. DID NOT exhibit the problem.
