Definitely not limited to a single person, greenwall.

Netflix uses silverlight. As for outdated flash, I rarely need it anymore and it still asks me whether or not to run flash at all. Granted, thats an extension.

Actually, Netflix now uses html5 as well and silverlight is being sunset.

Looks like the reason the nav breaks is because /js/vo.js calls swfobject on the first line, and there's some nav specific jquery in there. If you just remove /js/swfobject.js, it'll break.

Try removing/commenting that first line and then take swfobject.js out?

Thanks Snax, I'll try that as soon as I get a chance.

I suspect malware on your computer.
Are you running windows or linux ?

I have never EVER got any message to load flash or update flash plugin when coming on ANY part of the Vendetta site. I mean NONE EVER.

What other addons/plugins or extensions are you running on firefox ?

If your running windows I would certainly recommended installing and running the free version of malware bytes to scan your computer for malware.

Also try going to about:plugins and removing the file located in the folder shown.
Then reinstall flash.
I would also NOT use the firefox install method but go directly to adobe to install your flash.

That is all I can say about it. I was NEVER asked to update or install flash on Vendetta site EVER.

Not saying it can't happen but I just never saw this.

I concur with you captain86, all of those computer illiterate VO players pretending to have elite linux and programming skills are probably just infected with malware and adware made by script kiddies.

We already determined how this was impacting people a few weeks ago. It may only impact a small cross-section of players, but that doesn't mean it isn't real, or requires being infected with malware.

It's also dumb that we're loading a legacy flash-detection library, that we don't actually need. We'll address that.

Ok, I changed this to remove the library calls, and commented it out of the header. Let me know if that's better for those of you with Firefox-but-old-Flash?

Incarnate, you just removed the entire sidebar on the left hand side.. Well done.. lol.

Did you try shift-reloading, Kierky? If you have a combination of cached and non-cached data, that could be problematic.

I've tried this in multiple browsers, and I have the sidebar in all of them..

I just restarted nginx with expire times on javascript/html set to a second, that may help people for the moment.

That's better.

Ah, this seems to have fixed a problem I've had with a mobile browser that I use, the nav bars used to disappear if I minimised the browser and went back to it.

Never bothered to report as I thought it was the browsers fault, seems that issue is gone.

I just had the side bar missing from mine. Ctrl+Shift+R brought it back. (Firefox 42.0 on Win7)
