Firefox browser update 116.0 (64-bit) scramblling text possibly with ZoneAlarm anti-keylogger softwa

[user573900TY]

I am having problems typing anything into the Firefox browser 116.0 (64-bit) without it being scrambled. I have ZoneAlarm anti-keylogger software which has always worked fine until the last Firefox update. Can someone fix this?

There is a bug on file, and a developer has created a patch for review and testing. My guess it that it will be  5-7 days before it actually shows up in an update. For now, you would need to either disable anti-keylogger or find a way to make it not apply to Firefox.

Old versions of Firefox are always available, but not recommended. See: https://support.mozilla.org/kb/install-older-version-firefox. Please note that the older version won't automatically work with your upgraded profile folder, and that extra steps are required to migrate your data. See: https://support.mozilla.org/kb/dedicated-profiles-firefox-installation.

Thanks for the info! I just updated to 116.0.1. I thought this patch would fix the problem but it hasn't. Maybe they'll put another out that will actually work.

The 116.0.1 patch did not work (64-bit, Win 11, Firefox browser). The notes said this patch fixed the problem  but it didn't. Text is still scrambled only in Firefox since updating to 116. No problem in previous versions or with other browsers.

The 2nd patch did the trick (116.0.2). It works now! Thank you!
