icons on certain websites do not work
on certain websites some icons do not show up and just show a rectangle with a four digit letter and number code that starts with a letter. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have tried resetting the cache, looking for extensions that would conflict with these websites and have cleared them, and setting the minimum font size to be none. Help

I looked at the console of the website I was browsing and it gives me this error. Content Security Policy: The page’s settings blocked the loading of a resource at data:font/woff;base64,d09GRgABAAAAAIw4AB… (“font-src”). i hope this helps.
What hex code is in the little boxes? Is this in the E000-E8FF PUA range that is used for downloadable fonts?
Special icons are usually supplied by an icon font that is downloaded from the server (@font-face) You may see little boxes with the hex code of the character if you do not have a font installed that covers this Unicode range.
You can check gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled on the about:config page and make sure it is set to true (if necessary double-click the line to toggle its value to true).
Such a font wouldn't normally be block by CSP rules.
Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page (i.e. no authentication or signing on required)?
If you use uBlock Origin then check the "block remote fonts" setting.
If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block content (Adblock Plus, NoScript, Disconnect, Ghostery, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin) always make sure such extensions do not block content.
- make sure your extensions and filters are updated to the latest version

Firefox shows the shield icon at the left end of the location/address bar in case Content Blocking is blocking content.
- click the shield icon for more detail and possibly disable the protection
You can check the Web Console about what content is blocked
- "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Web Developer
