 I am using HTTPS everywhere with default configuration and SSL observatory
 enabled. I am not using Tor, just Windows 64 + Firefox 15.0. On some
 websites the HTTPS extension does not work, so I set it to disabled for
 this website. After I close and restart the browser, it will be enabled
 again. (I have to manually disable the extension for the specific website
 each time I want to access it.)

 An example is the following (German newspaper):
 http://www.faz.net/aktuell/wirtschaft/magazinbericht-merkel-will-
 griechenland-in-jedem-fall-im-euro-halten-11883753.html


 The article is shown without a problem. If I click on "Lesermeinungen" the
 discussion & commentaries should be loaded (without refreshing the entire
 page, just see for yourself).

 If HTTPS is enabled the commentaries are not shown and the following error
 message is given:
 "Die gesuchten Inhalte sind leider derzeit nicht verfügbar. Bitte
 versuchen Sie es später noch einmal." (meaning: not available, come back
 later).

 If HTTPS is disabled the commentaries are shown normally.


 The problem has been consistent during the last versions of Firefox and
 HTTPS everywhere. Apart from HTTPS everywhere I also have installed the
 following extensions and plugins:
 AdBlock Plus
 BugMeNot
 F6
 Ghostery
 InstaClick
 Adobe Acrobat
 Google Earth
 Flash
 Silverlight
