Thank you for the reply. When this began happening, I checked many settings in the option dialog that I thought might cause this problem. I didn't find anything unusual. I normally have the display of control characters turned on, but turning this off didn't make a difference. I'm also using the original reading mode, and trying compressed mode didn't change anything.
However, I did uncover an interesting fact. I remembered an old sequence I used to use on the Braille Sense classic to do a cold reset. This still works on the Plus. When I did the cold-reset and restored my settings, the problem went away. So I guess the bottom-line is that if it comes back, do a cold reset. Perhaps pressing the reset button when a website won't load leaves the browser in a strange state. Also, in reading the troubleshooting section in the help facility, I noticed it says that the system resets to factory settings after pressing the reset button. As I've had to do this a few time, I know this isn't true--the settings I had been using haven't changed. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Raul A.
