Wrong context menu

I am a big fan of Slimjet and have used it for a couple years now. However, I have always had the problem that I cannot paste from the context menu into a web page. Instead, I have to use Ctrl-V, which works without problem. Today I discovered that it wasn't just the paste function missing from the ...

Flash problem with latest Slimjet

This isn't exactly a bug and it's not really Slimjet's fault, but it came with the latest Slimjet update and I am not a Chrome user so I am posting about it here. A live news stream I like suddenly stopped working. After two days of searching I finally pinpointed it to the latest Flash update. Since...

Re: Why doesn't Slimjet work with Comedy Central?

Thanks for the reply. No ad blocker in the way. I only use Ghostery and I disabled it while diagnosing the problem. I get the same issue with Slimjet on two different computers, a laptop runnning Win 10 and a desktop on Win 7. On that same computer Opera 12 works fine. So what is going on here?

Why doesn't Slimjet work with Comedy Central?

I tried to view some episodes of South Park today but only get a blank screen on the Flash player. The site says the video is playing, but it isn't. I have the latest updates to Slimjet and Flash Player and Flash seems to work okay on other sites. CC is the first one I have encountered this with. Wo...

Hyperlinks being truncated

I like Slimjet but I keep running into new problems with it. I upgraded to Windows 10 and had issues when I reinstalled Slimjet. I solved those and thought all was okay but now something else has gone wrong. The latest problem is that when I click on a hyperlink to a forum from an external program, ...

Win 10 error saving to pdf [resolved]

I just upgraded to Win 10. Now whenever I try to save a web page as pdf, I get a Chrome Aw Snap error. This always worked perfectly under 8.1. I just upgraded to latest version of Slimjet but still have the problem. I don't know if this is a Slimjet bug or a Win 10 bug but it is a real pain. Does an...

Strange Slimjet issues

I just upgraded to Slimjet 4.0.12.0. Now I'm having strange issues I never had before. Sometimes Slimjet freezes and won't respond at all or only responds after a very long time. Sometimes it resets, forcing me to repeat all my logins. A really annoying thing is it keeps repeating a download I did a...

Re: A plugin isn't responding

Some of this is over my head, especially some of the Flash stuff. I updated Slimjet and followed instructions from the Flash site for uninstalling it, which is a real pain, and then reinstalling it manually. This avoids the automatic update stuff, which seems to be part of the problem. I'm still not...
