Forum: Login problem

system · 2015-12-10T16:39:10.000Z

Thanks avast.
Im finally able to log in with pale moon my favourite web browser.

Even though i dont agree with this form of discrimination its nice to see that avast finally provided a solution.

Im puzzled as to why avast did not do this from the start.
Of course with google being a large corporation they no doubt shook a few dollars about to gain numero uno status with the avast team.

Ethics anyone…? 8)

For the past week when I tried to open http://forum.avast.com I got :

Secure connection: fatal error (40) from server (Failed to connect to server. The reason may be that the encryption methods supported by the server are not enabled in the security preferences_.

Simply hitting reload and the page showed up fine. Today the page loads without a problem, but after clicking "login" there is only the spinning waiting symbol and it doesn't go to the login page.

Each time when I try to post I get :

Only way to post is clicking the back button and click “post” again.

This is really sloppy work by avast and discriminatory in its very nature.
No avast ,not everyone wants to use google chrome thank you and attempting to shove it down avast users throats will not work either.
Maybe if enough opera users bark from the highest rooftops then avast may turn a deaf ear into a listening ear and actually sort thr god forsaken mess up.

Look at the amazing turnaround in regard to pale moon users.For weeks pale moon users could not log in and were then subsequently fed a mixture of avast contrived trollop as to why this was and then finally…VOILA.!! it was fixed.
Pure laziness and a security company should know better than to try and dictate what browser people should use. 8) 8)

Try to make a positive post for a change, or show everyone how it should be done in your opinion.
It seems you know it all and can do a much better job.

Not a very helpful and conclusive reply. ???

Indeed, you are not very helpful at all.
You don’t come even close to something that is helpful >:(

Only a scotsman would use the word “wee”
Its certainly not off topic by any means.
Still no satisfactory explanation as to why the log in issues were present.

Bad xcripting.

midnight · 2015-12-16T01:02:20.000Z

You can log in now so that should make you a “wee” bit happy.

Eddy · 2015-12-16T02:01:55.000Z

Arnold,

I only mentioned some problems I am/was experiencing.
Your reaction :

This is really sloppy work by avast and discriminatory in its very nature.

If you really believe that, why didn’t you provide the prove of it? Why didn’t you supply a (possible) solution ?
You act as the mister know it all.

Oh wait, I already know why you didn’t…
You have no clue about things at all.

Guess what…
The “40 error” was caused by a wrong setting on one of the servers that my ISP is using.
And I can assure you that avast is not my ISP.

system · 2015-12-16T21:51:36.000Z

I am certainly no know it all.
Your arrogant and sarcastic replies seems to indicate your a step above us all.

What are your credentials.?

Anyhow back on topic…
The avast team really need to be making more browsers accessible to their forums instead of this incessant push and shove to get people to use chrome.
Not everyone wants what chrome has to offer and a more diverse approach is needed,

Have you forgotten Firefox, IE, Opera, Pale Moon, etc etc etc.
You’re beetling a dead horse just to have something to nag about.

as you may or may not know the pale moon issue was only recently fixed.
Why is it that chrome and ie were able to log in but not pale moon or opera…One size should fit all.

Yes, but this is OT here.

Hello,

most of this thread I once started is off topic.
To remember 6. august 2015:

I use Avast free since last december, and from time to time I look into this forum. 2 or 3 days ago I had permanent problems while login into this site (normally I am logged in permanently). At first I had a login site as shown in the first attachment. The captcha selection didn't work and was repeated.

Many texts here are drifting off to personal things with no connection to my answer at the begin …

Considering your first post and the first reply I would have thought the question was answered as that captcha method is no more.

It then got captured by other ‘Forum: Login problems’ (Pale Moon login issues) not directly related to your initial post about captcha imaging method. From here it took many different turns as other login issues were added to the mix.

stibi · 2015-12-22T16:52:07.000Z

Yes. But phrases like “Your arrogant and sarcastic replies seems to indicate your a step above us all.
What are your credentials.?” have nothing to do with any of these different issues. They are just crap.

Is there no moderator to delete such nonsense?
