Recently suffering an infection, I left my machine logged in for 14 days ; |
| 2 |
during that time, I did a couple of eix-sync's + system updates. |
| 3 |
Yesterday feeling sufficiently better, I shut it down when going to bed. |
| 4 |
Today, I restarted with no apparent problem & read the news via Firefox. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Then I tried to do a search for 'Thomas Telford' with the default Google : |
| 7 |
nothing happened nor when I substituted Wikipedia in the search-engine box ; |
| 8 |
OTOH in that box DuckDuckGo successfully found the Wikipedia entry. |
| 9 |
I also tried my bookmark for Wikipedia, which also refuses to work. |
| 10 |
The only hint I have is 1 "URL not found" report. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Vivaldi finds both Google & Wikipedia without any problem. |
| 13 |
All the other usual newspapers etc come up as usual : |
| 14 |
only those 2 fail to appear when using Firefox. |
| 15 |
I've checked for cookie blockers, but there's no related entry, |
| 16 |
nor anything in AdBlockPlus. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
To keep the older Tab sorting system, I still FF 38.8.0 , |
| 19 |
but there has been no other problem with it since I installed it 160716. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Can anyone suggest what might have happened ? |
