reCAPTCHA Worked Yesterday - Not Today

Unread post by tinkerer » 2018-10-21, 05:38

Hello. I tried Pale Moon for the first time yesterday. Pages loaded fast with no glitches.
Visited a site I use frequently. They recently adopted "I'm not a robot" reCAPTCHA. No
problems, it rendered perfectly.

A few minutes ago I visited the same site. There have been no changes to my computer
hardware or software. reCAPTCHA is not rendering. Refreshed the page several times.
Didn't help. (See attached image.)

What can I do to correct this problem?

Are you blocking google assets/scripts with an extension, perhaps?
It's also possible the Google service is simply unavailable at this time for you.

After a fresh install, I immediately tried Pale Moon. There are no added extensions.

I considered that Google service might be having problems, so I returned to same
site at least a dozen times. reCAPTCHA worked flawlessly the first time. After that,
"could not connect to the reCAPTCHA service" appeared over and over.

I've seen this happen with several other browsers. I can't find a logical explanation
about why it's happening, and how to fix the problem.
