Hmmm - may have this cracked.

I had the " Do not allow websites to know where you came from (suppress HTTP Referrer header)" ticked in the settings - and having installed again and gone through each setting until it broke, this looks like the culprit!

Not sure therefore if it is the browser setting or the site that is at fault, but probably the site to be honest!

Cheers

Blocking the referrer header can indeed cause issues with some sites, depending on how they’re configured.

If you want to block the headers, you can use an extension like NOREF. Instead of a blanket block like the Dragon setting, you can whitelist sites that require the headers to function.
