Actually, I prefer using Firefox. Add a Ublock ad blocker and it works great. Not even ads on my email page. May block that shield pest as well, though you may want to contact Century on that one. I recommend you use Internet Explorer instead of Edge. Just have to type "internet" in the search bar, and when Internet Explorer shows at the top of the display, right click and choose "Pin to taskbar" (so you have handy access to it). Edge always seems to have problems.

I am using Explorer now on this site, my log in problem is I did not have password exact ! I did check in Google with " Saved Passwords " and there are 31 of those there and 22 of those show that "emblem " for the site ! The first on the list and it has that " Emblem " is like an IP address and I Googled the address and says that many routers use that address and another place in the search said it was a " Gateway " address . Thanks !

OK … I just got in to my e-mail through Explorer and on the third page ( the second sign in page ) where that ' Emblem " has stayed solid for a couple of weeks now …. it does not show in Explorer which leads me to think that it is Google that is tracking my movement for whatever reasons ! The " Emblem " is not so much a pest as it is I am always curious of " Why " when things start to happen that has never happened / I would be curious to hear your professional opinion . I have a very recent post here about Google that may explain my opinion ….. Thanks !

Just upgraded to version 1903 today, I first did a image of the drive. Upgrade took some time but had no problems, all seems to be working OK so far.

For this mysterious emblem you keep talking about, log out of your email and restart the computer and log back in. It might just be created from your email's cookie. Logging out will clear the cookie.

It appears while using Google Chrome only . Started out a few weeks ago appearing faithfully on the last ( third ) page of logging to my e-mail account but now is also showing faithfully on the second page . First I go to Homepage Century Link ….click on E-mail then it goes to Log In page then goes to second E-mail Log In page . Thanks .

I probably will do that . I have narrowed it down to Google Chrome because when I stumbled in to the saved passwords about 2/3 of those showed that emblem . But for this site it shows a little monitor and keyboard but I must say that using Google Chrome for here ...it showed that emblem briefly before finally landing on the Little Monitor / keyboard . Thanks .

I’m curious as to what the Emblem that you’re talking about looks like. Can you post a picture of it?

I tried that during this whole discussion but really I do not know how to accomplish that task .I am sure I did stumble upon taking /trying to take a screen shot but I never could figure out how to post it here and now I am not sure how I even got to the screen shot deal . Thanks .
