I was using the selenium module but all of a sudden I get this error
ConnectionResetError: [WinError 10054] An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host
here is my simple code that gives me the error
from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get('https://www.instagram.com/')

May be is time to upgrade Webdriver for your navigator. I had the same problem using Chrome, and it was solved replacing the existing chromedriver.exe (windows in my case) with the latest version.
