ead Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Hi there I can't get either posts or PMs to accept a paste from another source e.g. Word docs, web links etc. I have also noticed that if I type at my normal speed half the characters go missing and it takes ages to type anything. I also notice that on occasion the red wavy line in spellchecker hovers under a word and flashes a bit. Very odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad3353 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 A bit more detail, perhaps..? On what platform (PC, Mac, other...)..? What browser..? Has this always been the case, or just recently..? Maybe we could suggest something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just downloaded Mozilla Firefox and used that instead. Problem solved. https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ead Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 Thanks for the above. Previously everything had worked fine both at home and work. I guess I have noticed this in the last month or two. Windows 7 at home with IE or Chrome. Not sure at work but think it's Windows NT with either IE or Chrome. Will try FF at home but will not be allowed to do so at work. Alain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ead Posted December 12, 2015 Author Share Posted December 12, 2015 Firefox seems to work much better at home. Thanks for the tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
