Iceweasel is Debian's web browser which has been re-branded and modified from Firefox. Due to license issues, Firefox cannot be used in Debian. It works just like Firefox, but it has some problems and some configuration is needed.
(1) Browser Add-Ons cannot be installed with error related to connection. Download error: -228
After searching on the internet, and found that issue related to IPv6 (TCP/IP Version 6). But even if I disable the IPv6 in kernel module configuration, But the problem still happen. Unless, if i change Iceweseal setting then the problem solved. It is done by entering "about:config" in the Iceweasel address bar, and key-in ipv6 as filter, network.dns.disableIPv6 and it set to true.
(2) Some web buttons or javascript not working.
There are some websites with buttons (functions) or javascripts have no response when I clicked it, even if I am using Epiphany web browser. But those buttons & javascripts are working fine, when browsing under Opera. One example website is Live.com (hotmail.com), after I composed an email, the "Attach" button is not working, and also for many other buttons for message text formatting.
Again, to solve this issue, we need to configure the Iceweasel about:config setting, and then replace the value for general.useragent.extra.firefox = Iceweasel/3.0.6 to Firefox/3.0.6
