That is hugely rare for me. If I can open the page in another browser, it almost always will open in the problem browser if I close it and reopen it. Heck, Firefox will periodically start crapping on my network connection s o I can't get decent ping times. Restart it and all is well.

When your car maker sends you a recall notice that some safety related part is a recall, do you ignore that? Isn't software security like that? In a ddition new stuff is added that will be used by web sites as well as bug fi xes that affect functionality. What's wrong with that?
Bottom line is you can run with no updates and live with the consequences o r you can let the software operate as it was designed to do. Larkin is jus t having a hissy about the fact that the world doesn't work the way he woul d like it. Are you in that same boat with him?

It's dangerous to keep your system old, including browsers. Vulnerability holes are stuffed all the time, if you keep an old browser your system could be wide open to intruders
I use an addon to Firefox that colors the active tab. Others supress scripting, fill in forms, delete cookies, and un-do what Google does to search URLs.

You didn't respond to the post except trying to change the subject
Complaining that the browser does not work on a website, and not willing to update the browser (this is self explanatory(, ignoring critical safety issues not updating.
I could just change the subject by talking about methane from cows, but that does not change the facts. Seems like how the journalists are dealing with Trump. Nothing sinks through (I am not comparing you to Trump, he's a one in a billion idiot)
part is a recall, do you ignore that? Isn't software security like that?
.
Ok, so unless your life is on the line you don't care to lift a finger to m aintain data security? Got it.
s bug fixes that affect functionality. What's wrong with that?
productivity.
"Over time" meaning half a decade or more? Yeah, it would e terrible to ha ve to upgrade memory or something after some years.
es or you can let the software operate as it was designed to do.
every time with yet more added crp.
By "crp" you mean the functionality that web sites will continue to move to ward? This isn't between you and Firefox or Chrome. This is the rest of t he world. It's like sticking with your wood burning Stanley Steamer while the rest of the world has moved on to internal combustion.
k the way he would like it.
Ok, I'll bite. Yes he is.
You and Larkin are the one's clashing with the rest of the Internet.

Not sure what the "it" refers to. Do you mean Firefox? I don't have any p roblems with that. But then I have 32 GB in my machine just so I don't hav e to worry about memory issues with any program I use.
