Editor Has Gone Again. In Firefox

It still works fine on my Firefox, but I have always declined the big-orange-screen update offers.

That is strange. I don't get the big orange thing. Maybe i elected to update automatically. I also use a program called Disconnect. It stops third parties from dropping in on our conversation. I also use Firefox's Lightbeam which shows a visualisation of all the other sites trying to connect to me. googleapis, googleadplus, hatredmotorcyclists, for some. It also affords tracking protection. I had presumed that some of sites i blocked (via Lightbeam ) had stopped my editor etc. from working but then just out of blue it started working again. Right up to the time it stopped. ;-] ( I once bought a B&S motor that had worked right up until the time it stopped; yes i got it going again. Just love the irony. ) That is the conundrum. Jim

Possibly one or more plugins is interfering with things?

"Firefox doesn't 'like' me logging in. It says this site is unsafe as my password can be easily stolen."

It get similar warnings and I use Chrome. I get a warning on the login page...

... as well this on their emailed 'new-comment' notices ...

All my emails from other sources are encrypted, but not from GlobalSpec. They are the sole exception.

Mine works fine.

Firefox auto-updates. Win 7.

This is screenshot. I am now in Chrome. I stopped using Chrome because i was getting a lot of ads and even malware. I could, of course, just use Chrome but it is odd that i had full function for a short while. You can see in the screenshot that there is no toolbar and the text is on two lines, It goes to all one line in the post. Do you know if the formatting is third party software? I could then search Disconnect and Lightbeam to see if that third party site is blocked and whitelist it.

Thanks,

Jim

AFAIK all the formatting is done by an editor which is part of the CR4 system stuff - but I'm just any old member. Maybe it's time to drag in some help from Admin., and hope that either they know or can find someone who knows.

Maybe something to do with Win 8.1. screenshot posted using Chrome.

I was a very long time user of Firefox, but it was not kept updated for Linux when I was on a Linux "tick"! So I used Chrome, no problems.

I fairly recently went back to Windows (10) and I stayed with Chrome for daily usage, I have Firefox installed, but it is simply not as user friendly as Chrome now is and only there for occasional usage, like months apart.....

I hope this helps.

Yes, my recent, brief, use of Chrome was trouble free. No ads, no new windows opening, no malware. All that cr4p that Lyn was also complaining about ( where is he? ). So i may just switch to that browser.
