The blocking of mixed content is stopping me from using Ebay. I can't expand photos of items or look at any a additional photos . Most importantly I can't bid. Which is VERY, VERY, VERY frustrating and annoying.

I have followed your help guide as to how to turn off this annoying feature, but they are incorrect!

When I get to the appropriate screen which say 'You are not connected securely...' the tab to turn off blocking protection for mixed content is missing. It doesn't exist! Consequently I can't tun it off and can't bid or look at photos on Ebay.

Please correct this asap please.

When I press the "menu" button in the top right of the screen, nothing happens. If I hover over the button, it says "open application menu" but clicking does absolutely nothing. The same happens with the account button to the left.

What can I do to fix this?

Hello, I am still using windows 8.1 64bit & refuse windows 10, due to high risk privacy, yes predictable hollow words are said, BUT is Microsoft, a greedy un-scrupled money making, money hungry corporate entity, wants us to willing give it our private details voluntarily or under thin layer of extortion.

Hence my sticking to windows 8.1 as I have certain control, mainly updates.

Will Mozilla browsers be specifically supporting older operating systems like windows 8.1 into the coming years, not just months, e.g. until January 2023

Yes is a blunt question, but is eluded against in other responses, maybe is Microsoft buy out to sacrifice mozilla loyal users or similar, same query is for Brave browser. Mozilla I think is last Bastian for decency & morality, a leader in justice & honour.

For approximately three days now, I can't play any YouTube videos. I just get the spinning icon and suggestion to restart but it never resolves. I have tried a couple things but am currently not all that savvy and just want them to work! They will play fine in Opera, but I hate switching browsers just for that site.

How to remove ‘Click allow if you are not a robot’ pop-ups

Definition: “Click allow to confirm that you are not a robot” is a rogue website, which shows unwanted pop-ups and ads in the browser. Moreover, it redirects users’ tabs to other malicious websites that also threaten the security of your browser. Usually, the infection occurs after you visited and even clicked on suspicious websites. Of course, torrent downloads might also allow adware install on your computer. So, if you notice the same rogue website appearing even when surfing on a legitimate one, the adware is on your computer. When browser problems occur, it is also usually the case that viruses are on your computer. To appear legitimate, the app can pose as a way to improve surfing experience. Or, it may display alerts about a potential system infections. So, the software pretends to assist users in the removal of those infections. Of course, cybercriminals developed it with a clear purpose: their interest is to gain profit from affiliates. And they try to reach their goal by delivering intrusive ads and redirections to the website visitors. But they do not stop here. The malware can even change the browser’s settings and also illegally track users’ web activities. Ref: https://www.internetsecurity.tips/how-to-remove-click-allow-if-you-are-not-a-robot-pop-ups/#:~:text=%E2%80%9CClick%20allow%20to%20confirm%20that%20you%20are%20not,you%20visited%20and%20even%20clicked%20on%20suspicious%20websites.

I tried to follow these Instructions How to remove this adware

1  Run the browser on your PC and go to its Settings (the three dots or three horizontal lines in the menu) 
2   Expand the Privacy and Security options, in the left panel.  
3   Access Site Settings in the menu that opens.
4   In the provided list, identify the adware by its name. 
5   Click on it.
6  Set Notifications, Pop-ups and ads to Block.

These instructions do not correlate to Fox Browser -- How can I get rid of this pop-up on Fox Browser? Any Suggestions? I am running Windows 8.1 and Windows Defender does not seem to find this Adware. Is there a way to find it? By the way, "There is no 'Click Allow' to click . . . . ."

I am once again having issue with Hotmail and Firefox. It's working perfectly fine in Pale Moon, but it's gone totally blank in Firefox. It worked totally fine yesterday, but today I cannot access ANYTHING in Hotmail. Firefox says it's up to date, but usually when I start having issues with Hotmail, it's because Firefox needs to update. Please help fix this problem! All other websites work fine! Thank you!

Hi,

I constantly battle with Firefox, trying to listen to a radio station I know is fine, as I have been listening to it for years. But recently Firefox hasn't been allowing me to, so I have to try through other browsers. I like Firefox in general, but this really annoys me, as there is no way to allow access to particular sites. Even though a site is listed in the safe ones, it still blocks it and nothing can be done

Please sort this Thank you

Whenever I try to visit https://www.doordash.com/ in Firefox I get a web page that states --

Hmmm! The page you're looking for must be here somewhere... error code: 404 ERR_004 Maybe you'd like to go back home

(See screenshot.)

This does not occur on any other browser.

What is this nonsense?

Posted a question, received email reply, but doesn't appear to be any way to access forum posts directly. Support area is very poorly organized, mostly just links to boilerplate articles. I've been doing support for SMF over 10 years and seen some bad installs, but nothing as awful as this.
