I currently have the firefox free extension of windscribe and run Windows 7. After alot of trial and error, I have found that windscribe is causing my homepage to load twice when I log on to it. I have changed the homepage to several different URL's and it makes no difference. Turning it off does not change the double page loading, I have to completely disable it to stop that from happening. FireFox version 70.0.1 Windows 7 SP1 Only firewall is windows firewall and the firewall on my modem I have firefox addons ghostery and Adblock ultimate (please note, I disabled these addons while windscribe was enabled and still had the problem but if I disable windscribe, I do not have the problem)

I found this................and BTW, i've notified windscribe but they say it is a browser problem.

I have never heard of windscribe, but you will have to have it disabled until we can fix the problem and respond sooner or later.

Windscribe is an extension VPN through firefox.
