MLFAN17

has anyone in here had a windows update recently?

8:14 am

BzznBea

Windows 10

8:14 am

MollyL

Crazy set up for that do6

8:16 am

MLFAN17

bzz is babble secure on yours?

8:16 am

MollyL

Babble has never been secure

8:16 am

BzznBea

I think so, yes.

8:17 am

MLFAN17

adobe flash games/sites how can we play games with that plug in now?

8:17 am

MollyL

Nope. Look up at where it says playbabble.com in the address line. Right next to that it says Not Secure. I'm on Windows 10.

8:17 am

MLFAN17

in red ?

8:18 am

MLFAN17

Any saved passwords should we remove them?

8:18 am

MollyL

Flash is ending in December. If you want to allow Flash, click on the very left side of the address bar and click ALLOW in the drop down menu

8:18 am

BzznBea

I use Babble Expert

8:18 am

M3

The only page you need to check is using Shtps is the payment page.

8:19 am

M3

Use the EDGE browser on Windows. There are many others to choose from

8:19 am

MollyL

No, not exactly. Any site that is not secure can give up your password information. Therefore, don't use a password here that you use for anything financial.

8:19 am

MLFAN17

m3 teh Edge updated to 10

8:20 am

MLFAN17

thankfully molly i dont do that

8:20 am

M3

I Use Lastpass as my password manager

8:20 am

MLFAN17

the Edge updated and thats what i am using

8:21 am

MollyL

Many people here have had password issues because this site is not safe. That is one of the reasons I stay logged in.

8:21 am

MLFAN17

molly what an we use instead of the adoe flashplayer?

8:21 am

MollyL

I find Edge to be a very confusing browser. I prefer Chrome or Firefox.

8:22 am

MLFAN17

i dont like edge or chrome

8:23 am

MollyL

Do some Google research on what happens after Flash gets dropped. It is complicated and not very secure to keep using it.

8:24 am

M3

you can allow the use of flash for spercific sites in your browswer settings.

8:24 am

M3

you can allow the use of flash for spercific sites in your browswer settings.

8:24 am

M3

This website is veryout of date and not secure at present. however, litke you say , use a unique email and password for log in, you will be ok.

8:25 am

MLFAN17

so anything with adobe flash player as things are at the moment is unusable?

8:26 am

MLFAN17

m3 it no longer lets you click to be able to use it that has been blockef with this updated

8:28 am

MollyL

No, like I said, Flash doesn't end until December. If you want to enable Flash, you have to right click on the very left side of the address bar (at the site you want to enable Flash) and enable Flash. Here you would right click on NOT SECURE and where it says FLASH click the drop down arrow and then click ALLOW

8:29 am

MollyL

You get 3 choices...Ask (default), Allow or Block

8:32 am

phandmd

good morning!

8:34 am

MLFAN17

8:34 am

MLFAN17

can html5 be installed now, or is that going ot be autmatic?

8:40 am

MollyL

Yes, it is blocked and you can allow it if you click on Allow. I'm done with this, off to open the bar. Drinks on the house.

8:46 am

phandmd

8:49 am

good morning all :)

9:38 am

cybernan

I have a suggestion for those of you who are worried about online websites and security:
Open a gmail account that you use only for game playing. Assign it a unique password and don't attach it to any of your other email accounts. That will at least minimize the risk.

9:59 am

marksdolly
