The Firefox and Extension Thread - Page 22

**ponky** · February 14th, 2018, 10:25 PM

New problems:

- I can't see some pictures from some hosts (can't say which because of next problem)

- I can't open many pages, including Firefox support

- I can't play majority of streaming videos (except YouTube)

- I can't open many pages for updates (eg Adobe Flash: "Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to www.adobe.com. The OCSP response is not yet valid (contains a date in the future). Error code: SEC_ERROR_OCSP_FUTURE_RESPONSE
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.")

Old problems:

- Adobe Flash is disabled for many pages and videos for me; sometimes this could be solved by hitting "activate Adobe Flash" for each page separatly

-I got some problems to finish update of it earlier

I had (another) hardware intervention on my PC today, but AFAIK I adjusted everything as usual - this said because all problems looks like security blockades due to poor date/time adjustment.Any idea?

Thanks anyway.

Need to know the FF version first of all.
And which extensions and plug-ins you have installed.

FF has disabled flash player for some time now, you shouldn't need it anymore.

The only 2 plug-ins should be (installed by Mozilla):

Open H264 video codec
Widevine content decryption module

Most but, not all, streams should play.
Some tube sites have not implemented this yet.

Anybody care to comment. Thanks in advance.

VEF admins, better take that message serious and switch to https, because that's the standard nowadays. For visitors: don't switch off that message. It's for your own good. Inform the website admin that they should go with the times and give you more security. Do you want to your login data to be stolen?

Just updated to 52, but no improvement.

I have Video Download Helper (working when streaming works - so, up to 3 days ago worked 100%) and Image Host Grabber (working on few hosts). I can't remember anything else. I have Google Search by Image via right click - is that plug-in or is on Firefox now?

New:

I reinstalated all I remember and now Firefox works better - there is more pictures, videos I can reach...

However, I'm still not able to go on some sites. I just get "Checking our browser before accessing site" ... "Please allow up to 5 seconds" ... "DDoS protection by Cloudflare" ... But this lasts forever, see image:

How to get off "protection" by Cloudflare, is that way to go?

Works for me, the site loads after a few seconds.

Perhaps, but this has to be decided by the vidz7 admins. It is their site which is "protected by Cloudflare", not your browser, so there is nothing you can do.

You are blocking Yahooapis, which enables those buttons.

Will Imagehost Grabber ever be back? Stopped working with Mac OS.
