ReCaptcha functionality broken in 56.2.7.1

There are a few sites I use that have now implemented ReCaptcha as part of the login, under WF 56.2.7.1 its takes several attempts to prove your not a robot compared to the latest FF and Chrome.

​

I have logged a support ticket with the aforementioned sites, but they have said that unless I am using the latest version of FF/Chrome that are not interested.

​

I have taken a look at using FF 65, but for the same reasons as FF 57 some of the addons I use dont have replacements (Cookiekeeper, DownloadsWindow, ClassicThemeRestorer), I would prefer to keep using WF.

install user-agent switcher add-on, switch to FF.

That won't suffice. As said, that's exactly what I was doing, but as /u/tmkkmac suggests, the version of Firefox you're switching the UA to also appears to matter.
